Michael van Praag unveils FIFA presidential election plans.

Script:

SOUNDBITE: (English) Michael van Praag, chairman of KNVB Dutch Football Association

"I am standing for election to become the next president of FIFA at the end of May. The successor to Sepp Blatter. As president of FIFA, I want to hold on to the good things FIFA has achieved, but I also want to do things differently to Mr. Blatter."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Michael van Praag, chairman of KNVB Dutch Football Association

"FIFA is doing badly and has lost all credibility. FIFA is constantly under suspicion. Of conflicts of interest, of nepotism, of corruption. FIFA has its back to the future."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Michael van Praag, chairman of KNVB Dutch Football Association

"FIFA has to change with the times. It has to become more transparent. It has to meet the demands of today. I have nothing against Mr. Blatter. In fact, I like him a lot as a person. However, someone who has led an organisation for so many years and who has become the personification of its poor image, can no longer be the face of a modernisation operation or of a 'new FIFA' - impossible."
