Fifa president Sepp Blatter to stand for re-election in 2011• Blatter has held the position since 1998 and is in third term
• 'I have not yet achieved my mission … football is my life'
The Fifa president, Sepp Blatter, has revealed he will stand for re-election in 2011, saying "I have not yet achieved my mission in football."
Blatter has held his position since 1998 when he took over from João Havelange, and despite often being controversial, is currently in his third term.
However, the 73-year-old told Gazzetta dello Sport he plans to continue for some time.
"I've not finished my mission in football yet," he said. "I need more time. I hope that in 2011 the Fifa congress once more has faith in me, otherwise I'll go back to my village. Football is my life."
