The Scottish Football Association has revealed that they will cast their in Friday's Fifa Presidential election in favour of Uefa general secretary Gianni Infantino.
The election to replace Sepp Blatter will take place in Zurich after the 79-year-old announced in June that would be stepping down from the position, following reports of a corruption scandal at the heart of football's world governing body. Blatter has held the position of Fifa President for 18 years.
Regarding their vote, SFA chief executive Stewart Regan has said that Infantino 'is the best candidate possible to lead the governance reform required at Fifa. He has been a highly respected general secretary of Uefa for many years and has performed that role with skill, diplomacy and professional integrity. As well as having the support of the majority of Uefa's national associations, he also has the support of many across the world in other confederations.'
