Noël Le Graët, the former president of the FFF, will lead the Paris office of Fifa

Noël Le Graët could have found a base. Entangled in numerous affairs, Noël Le Graët announced that he would resign from his post as president of the French Football Federation (FFF) on Tuesday morning. But, according to information from the Sports Department of Radio France, the now ex-president of the FFF will soon take over as head of the Paris office of the International Football Federation (Fifa).

Noël Le Graët was until then already a delegate of the president of Fifa Gianni Infantino, within the Paris office of the international body, housed in the Hôtel de la Marine, place de la Concorde, in the 8th arrondissement of Paris.

“They are not ashamed of anything”

This appointment aroused the anger of Yoann Lemaire, the founder and president of the Foot Ensemble association. “They are not ashamed of anything! It’s really impressive”, reacts this amateur footballer on franceinfo.

Targeted by an investigation for “moral and sexual harassment”, the now ex-boss of French football was also singled out by an audit report from the General Inspectorate for Sports Education and Research which denounced his “drifts of behavior” deemed “incompatible” with the exercise of the functions of president of the FFF.
