READING:

Sepp Blatter is president of FIFA again. He beat his only rival in a vote on Friday. Mr Blatter has another four years as FIFA's boss. In his victory speech, he said: "I am the president now. The president of everybody." On Wednesday, seven top FIFA officials were arrested for corruption. Many people want Blatter to resign because of the many scandals at FIFA since he became president in 1998. Britain's leader said Blatter should quit and "the sooner the better".

Mr Blatter took responsibility for FIFA's problems. He said he would change FIFA and put it in a "strong position". England's Football Association said: "He's had 16 years to reform it and he hasn't." In those 16 years, there was the South Africa World Cup and a lot of money went to Asia and Africa. However, FIFA's sponsors are asking big questions. One is why FIFA is doing so little about the 1,200 workers who have died to make the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
