Sepp Blatter and Michel Platini, the respective presidents of FIFA and UEFA, have been hit with suspensions after recommendation from world football's ethics committee.
The verdict has been endorsed by the judiciary chamber, determining Blatter and Platini will each be provisionally suspended for90 days. Jerome Valcke, the FIFA general secretary, was also hit with the same temporary ban.
News of the sanctions came via Martyn Ziegler of the Press Association on Thursday:

It has been alleged Blatter signed an “unfavourable” contract for the organisation and made a “disloyal payment” to Platini.
