Uefa have hinted at pulling European sides out of upcoming competitions if Prince Al bin al-Hussein does not become Fifa president, and the FA chairman has backed that stance

Football Association chairman Greg Dyke has admitted England would consider boycotting the World Cup if Sepp Blatter wins Friday's Fifa presidential election.



Blatter is the favourite to beat Prince Ali bin al-Hussein and remain in the post, despite opposition from Michel Platini and Uefa following Wednesday's arrests of a number of high-profile Fifa officials in Zurich.



And Dyke has revealed the FA would think about joining with the rest of Uefa if they chose to pull out of upcoming tournaments, but would not take the lead themselves.



"There would be no point pulling England out if everyone else stays in," he told Sky Sports. "It would have no impact. It would just be forgotten.



"But if you could pull Uefa out, that might have an impact. If Blatter gets re-elected, then that should be discussed.



"I thought the evidence the Americans produced was devastating and I don’t think Blatter can survive that. He might survive this weekend but I don’t think he can survive in the long-term.



"During his period in charge, the level of corruption has been unacceptable. It's just frightening."
