took part in three FIFA World Cups, in 1978, 1982 and 1986, reaching the semi-final of the latter two competitions. In 72 international appearances for France – 49 as captain – he scored 41 goals, an achievement that stood as a record for a number of years.</p><p>Michel Platini played for three clubs – AS Nancy-Lorraine (1973-79) and AS Saint-Étienne (1979-82) in France, and Juventus (1982-87) in Italy. In a career spanning 501 matches, he scored 265 goals, and won the Ballon d'Or for European Footballer of the Year three successive times, in 1983, 1984 and 1985.</p><p>He was then coach of the French national team from 1988 to 1992 before embarking on a career as a football administrator. From 1992 to 1998, he was co-president of the FIFA World Cup Organising Committee for the 1998 World Cup in France, and vice-president of the French Football Federation (FFF) from 2000.</p><p>Within world football's governing body FIFA, from 2002 Michel Platini was a member of the FIFA Executive Committee, chairman of the Technical Development Committee, vice-chairman of the Football Committee and vice-chairman of the GOAL project. He was a member of the FIFA World Cup Organising Committee for the 2006 final round in Germany.</p><p>From 1988 to 1990, Michel Platini was a member of the UEFA Technical Development Committee. From 2002, he was a member of the UEFA Executive Committee, and represented the Executive Committee on the UEFA Technical Development Committee. He also served on the UEFA working group on clubs and leagues.</p><p>Michel Platini was elected as the sixth president of UEFA at the XXXI Ordinary UEFA Congress in Dusseldorf on 26 January 2007.
