Prince Ali of Jordan will once again attempt to become president of FIFA.

He has confirmed that he will take part in the election to replace Sepp Blatter.

Prince Ali was beaten in the last ballot in May, only for Blatter to announce days later that he was standing down, amid corruption claims hitting football's world governing body.
