Brazil great Zico will not be in the running for the FIFA presidency after he won the support of only two national federations for his bid.
Former Brazil international star Zico has withdrawn his bid for the FIFA presidency after he attracted meager support to stand for the role.
Zico launched a manifesto last month, casting himself as a renewal candidate pledging democracy and transparency at the scandal-ridden organization, along with a commitment to advance the increased use of technology to assist match officials.
But the 62-year-old failed to garner the support of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF), and only won the backing of two national federations - minnows Angola and Sao Tome and Principe.
