France's soccer federation boss Le Graet resigns - source
PARIS :Noel Le Graet, the embattled president of France's soccer federation, has resigned, a source with direct knowledge of the matter told Reuters on Tuesday.
Le Graet, head of the FFF since 2011, had taken a step back amid a legal investigation into alleged sexual and moral harassment and a damning audit commissioned by the sports ministry. Earlier this month, the audit concluded that the 81-year-old Le Graet no longer had"the necessary legitimacy" to administer and represent the sport in France and"highlighted the inappropriate behaviour of Mr Le Graet towards women".
