Michel Platini on Wednesday announced he is officially resigning from the post of the President of the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA).

"I have a clear conscience, I am certain not to have made any mistake and will continue the legal battle," Platini said in his farewell speech at the UEFA extraordinary congress.

UEFA will name its new president - either Slovenian FA president Aleksander Ceferin or Dutch FA boss Michael van Praag - later on Wednesday.
