BERLIN (Reuters) - The designated president of the German football association (DFB), Fritz Keller, said on Wednesday he will not take over international positions or run the DFB as a one-man show, after getting the backing of professional and amateur associations.

Keller, who has been chairman of Bundesliga side Freiburg since 2010, was the only name put forward by a DFB commission in charge of finding a new head of the seven million-member association earlier this month.
