Infantino says it's "obvious" that he has "the same philosophy as Michel Platini", who will be delighted right now. pic.twitter.com/0wHSn4tolr

At last! A senior football federation official who speaks (polylingually) in a language I can understand. @Gianni_2016 is #FIFA president

From Infantino's hometown of Brig to Blatter's hometown of Visp is just 9.6km.

Let's hope the FIFA they preside over is further apparent.

Have this weird feeling that Gianni Infantino will pull off his mask to reveal Sepp Blatter.

Five months ago Infantino wasn't even in this race. Now he's about to become one of the best-paid men in world football.

Tokyo Sexwale has withdrawn prematurely from the FIFA elections. Rather surprising given his name.
