Sepp Blatter has rejected an invitation to take part in a live television debate involving all four candidates for the FIFA presidency. The other three candidates - FIFA vice-president Prince Ali Bin Al Hussein of Jordan, Dutch FA president Michael van Praag and former Portugal international Luis Figo - had all agreed to take part in the debate but current FIFA president Blatter has refused to do so. The debate was a joint BBC and Sky initiative and Football Association chairman Greg Dyke had offered to host it at Wembley. Blatter did **t even respond in writing - he communicated his decision verbally via a FIFA official.
