Jerome Valcke believes he will follow Sepp Blatter out of FIFA once a new president is appointed in 2016.
FIFA general secretary Jerome Valcke expects to leave his role within the organization following the presidential elections in February.
The 54-year-old assumed his current position in 2007 and has been a key part of Sepp Blatter's administration ever since.
However, Blatter announced his resignation four days after being re-elected for a fifth term in May amid the scandal that saw nine past and present FIFA officials indicted by the United States Department of Justice on charges of racketeering conspiracy and corruption.
