Kwesi Nyantakyi said Africa's candidate wasn't strong enough
Kwesi Nyantakyi, head of the Ghana Football Association, has said that the majority of African delegates will support Bahrain's Sheikh Salman bin Ebrahim al-Khalifa to become Fifa's new president in tomorrow's elections.
Executives at the Confederation of African Football (Caf) have asked their members to back him, but the ballot is secret.
The 54 members of the Caf will meet in Zurich at lunchtime to confirm their preferred candidate but the Ghanaian was confident an "overwhelming majority will toe the line".
Mr Nyantakyi also said he wished that Africa had a strong candidate.
South African Tokyo Sexwale "doesn't appear that he is the right person for Africa to support at this moment," he said.
