THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) -- The three challengers bidding to oust Sepp Blatter as president of FIFA have discussed joining forces against the 79-year-old Swiss incumbent.
A spokesman for Dutch soccer federation president Michael van Praag, one of Blatter's opponents in the May 29 election, says ''it is too early to talk about which candidate might have the best chance.''
The spokesman, Sebastiaan van der Laan, says ''our shared, collective goal is to achieve change within FIFA.''
Former Portugal great Luis Figo and FIFA vice president Prince Ali bin al-Hussein also are running against Blatter.
