AMMAN — HRH Prince Ali reaffirmed on Monday that he would continue his bid for the FIFA presidency, taking place at the end of this month, especially after the supportive and positive responses from the football federations he visited in different countries, and the warm welcome his manifesto has received worldwide, according to a statement from his office. “I will continue the race until the end,” Prince Ali said. This comes after some tweets on social media claiming Prince Ali was considering withdrawing from the FIFA elections to back a single challenger against Sepp Blatter. The Prince, the only Arab candidate in the election race, continues to visit football associations and federations to get support for winning the position, and “changing the reputation of FIFA in the world”.
