Michel Platini “was worth his million” Swiss francs a year, former FIFA president Sepp Blatter told a Swiss court on Thursday, saying he could not understand why the pair were answering fraud charges.
The former FIFA chief and French football legend Platini are being tried at Switzerland’s Federal Criminal Court, following an investigation that began in 2015. The pair are being tried over a two million Swiss franc payment in 2011 to Platini, who was then in charge of UEFA.
