Suspended Platini could face further trouble

After being barred from all football activities, Michel Platini could face further more trouble from FIFA's ethics committee over appearance at Dubai event. On 27 December he attended the Globe Soccer Awards organised by the Dubai Sports Council along with many football stars. However, 6 days earlier (21 December) the head of UEFA has received an 8 year ban along with Sepp Blatter. Besides that, the Frenchman was photographed at the event and even gave his comment to Italian media about his corruption scandal that saw him banned. This suspension relates to a payment of 1,8 million Swiss francs made by Sepp Blatter (FIFA) to Platini in February 2011, 9 years after the Frenchman was working as a consultant to Blatter. Allegedly this news violation has arrived even to FIFA's ethics committee and that they investigate if the ethics' code was breached.
On this suspension, of course, Platini is denying any wrongdoing in this matter and will continue to fight in courts until clearing its reputation and name.
