Rumors have been circulating in France since the middle of last week about a possible “return” of Michel Platini to football, when the once powerful man from UEFA became president of the French Football Federation (FFF), replacing the retired Noel Le Grey.

However, the old great Blues ace, in an interview he gave to Radio Monte Carlo (RMC), denied any possibility of his new involvement in football.

“We will clarify something, I am ready for this. I made the announcement in July when I got rid of my business in Switzerland. I said that I would never return to football institutions. It seems to me that the French federation is part of the football authorities. So I will not return to football or to the French Federation, ”Platini emphasized and added:

“I don’t want to take power. I’ve had enough in the past. I was vice-president of the Federation 30 years ago, I did everything. Okay, that’s enough! And the other day I did not discuss this possibility at a meeting with the French sports minister. I feel so I like the life I’m leading, I don’t need to go back Why should I go back to football?”
