Sepp Blatter - 10 things you should know about Fifa president

The Swiss has risen to the top of football through clever politics, questionable comments and dreadful dancing
1. Sepp Blatter was born in Visp, a remote Alpine town in Switzerland in 1936. He has been married three times and has one daughter, Corinne, who lives in Visp where she owns a local restaurant. "It think when he's gone, when he's not Fifa president, they are going to realise what he has done," she said. "Thanks to him the world is a little better."
2. He has been re-elected for an unprecedented fifth term. He has worked at Fifa since 1975, first as technical director, then general secretary for 17 years from 1981 and then as Fifa president for the past 17 years, having first been elected in 1998.
