Presidential vote could be delayed

FIFA contender Prince Ali bin al Hussein said the international sports tribunal should delay Friday's world soccer leadership election if it cannot be guaranteed to be "free, fair and honest".

The Court of Arbitration for Sport said it would rule by Thursday whether to order FIFA to change the organization of the vote.

The prince has been joined by Jerome Champagne, another of the five contenders to replace Sepp Blatter, in demanding greater guarantees over the integrity of the increasingly tense election.
