Tokyo Sexwale has withdrawn from the race to become the next president of FIFA.
In his speech, Sexwale said: “My candidacy ends today, I end my participation, I leave you four candidates.”
FIFA is currently in the process of electing a successor to Sepp Blatter, who resigned the presidency, a role he had held since 1998, with an announcement due this afternoon.
South African businessman Sexwale has left the election before the first round of voting, leaving Prince Ali, Sheikh Salman, Jerome Champagne and Gianni Infantino on the ballot. (Skysports News)
