David Ginola says it is now time to 'reboot' world football following Sepp Blatter's decision to resign as president of FIFA.

The shock announcement was made on Tuesday, prompting reactions from all over the world, including that of former Tottenham, Newcastle United and Paris Saint-Germain star Ginola who was for a short time a candidate to run against Blatter.

"This man was probably and surely under a lot of pressure and he resigned from the game and now it's time to reboot FIFA and reboot the game of football and that's the most important," Ginola told Sky News.
