Former FIFA boss revels in visit to Putin, World Cup
Sepp Blatter came to Moscow and saw Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin, defying FIFA's wish that its suspended former president's visit to the World Cup would attract little attention.
"We had small talks," Blatter, who converses with Putin in German, told reporters yesterday.
"We spoke about football and the good start of the competition, the good start of the team." The 82-year-old Blatter is serving a six-year ban from official football duties for financial misconduct.
