The New President of UEFA Michel Platini said that his victory from former UEFA president Lennart Johansson as a great victory. “When I was a footballer, when you won a great victory you received a cup and went on a lap of honour, This is a great victory for me but I’m not going to do a lap of honour because now the work starts” said Platini.
Platini stated that he would press ahead with his plans to re-shape the Champions League, with his target a new format for the competition starting in 2009. He said: “I talked about finding a better equilibrium for the number of clubs and that’s for 2009-10. “The final decision will be by Uefa’s executive committee in April so we have a few months still to see which way we will go, but I would like a better equilibrium, it is very close to my heart.
“This is a great victory but I have huge admiration for Lennart and I would ask for Lennart Johansson to become an honorary president of Uefa.”
Johansson was given a standing ovation by the delegates at the invitation of Platini, although the Swede is openly against Platini’s proposed changes to the Champions League.
