Joseph “Sepp” Blatter (born 10 March 1936) is a Swiss former football administrator who served as FIFA’s eighth President from 1998 to 2015. Blatter has been barred from participating in FIFA activities since 2015, as a result of the FIFA corruption case that was made public that year, and will remain barred until 2027.
Blatter, who has a background in business, public relations, and sports administration, was elected president of FIFA at the 51st FIFA Congress on 8 June 1998, succeeding Joo Havelange, who had led the organization since 1974. Blatter was re-elected in 2002, 2007, 2011, and 2015. Blatter, like his predecessor Havelange, sought to increase the influence of African and Asian countries in world football by expanding the number of participating teams in various FIFA tournaments. He has consistently been the target of accusations of financial mismanagement and corruption. During Blatter’s presidency, the FIFA World Cup’s financial output significantly increased, but this was also accompanied by the fall of the marketing firm International Sport and Leisure and numerous allegations of corruption in the selection of FIFA tournaments.
