Ginola paid 250,000 pounds for FIFA presidential campaign

LONDON (Reuters) - David Ginola's unlikely bid for the FIFA presidency was exposed as little more than a publicity stunt when a bookmaking firm said it had paid the former France winger 250,000 pounds to stand,

Ginola launched on Friday an almost certainly doomed attempt to oust Sepp Blatter as head of world soccer's ruling body, assuming the role of the "fans' champion" under the slogan of "Rebooting Football."
