Blatter insists he's happy with Premier League foreign ownership

FIFA president Sepp Blatter insists he has no problem with foreign owners in the Premiership.

"I met the Gillet family (Liverpool) and the owners of Manchester United. I can only thank them for putting money into football," said Blatter.

"As long as they bring money to football that is good.

"Perhaps it is not the right solution, in other countries, the owners of the clubs are the fans.

"But the system here in England allows it, and I have no problems."
