Suspended FIFA president Sepp Blatter says a payment to UEFA chief Michel Platini was conducted as part of "a gentleman's agreement".

It is being investigated by Swiss authorities, who have alleged the £1.3M transaction was "disloyal".

Platini has also been suspended by FIFA, and has now had support by The Football Association withdrawn.

Speaking on Swiss television, Blatter said: "It was a contract I had with Michel Platini, a gentleman's agreement and that was followed through on."
