Rio de Janeiro: <\/strong>Former FIFA president Joao Havelange has been admitted to an intensive care unit with heart and breathing problems.<\/p>\n

This comes three weeks after the 95-year-old Brazilian was hospitalized for a serious bacterial infection in his joints.<\/p>\n

Joao Mansur Filho, a doctor at Rio de Janeiro’s Samaritano hospital, said Havelange was breathing with the aid of a ventilator after suffering “cardiac and respiratory insufficiency” Monday.<\/p>\n

He had been released from hospital last week after responding well to antibiotics prescribed for his septic arthritis, Xinhua reported.<\/p>\n

Havelange led FIFA from 1974 to 1998. Under his leadership FIFA grew from a small organization with a handful of employees to a multi-billion-dollar sporting and global brand.<\/p>\n

His career was tainted by allegations of corruption, including claims he received kickbacks from former FIFA marketing partner ISL, which he had denied. (IANS)<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
