约旦王子宣布竞选国际足联主席

Jordan's Prince Ali bin al-Hussein has officially announced his bid for the FIFA presidency.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today I stand before you and the world. With me are my brothers and sisters of Jordan, the heart of the Arab world and the crossroads of continents, religions, cultures and civilizations. I stand with the people who love football as I do, people who love justice and fair play. People who know in their hearts the power of the sport to change lives for the better. Friends I stand here in this ancient place, in the timeless heart of Amman to once again launch my candidacy for the presidency of FIFA."

The 39-year-old ran in the previous FIFA election in May, eventually bowing out to Sepp Blatter.

The election for the FIFA Presidency will be held in February.
