Former Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has decided not to stand against Gianni Infantino as a candidate in Fifa's presidential election.
The Frenchman had been considering running for the job but sources have told BBC Sport that he has ruled himself out.
Current world football chief Infantino's position was plunged into crisis by a backlash caused by his failed plan to sell commercial stakes in the World Cup to private investors.
