As reported by The Athletic, DBU chairman Jesper Moller added that Denmark would not be supporting FIFA president for reelection. He currently stands unopposed.
"There are presidential elections in FIFA. There are 211 countries in FIFA and I understand that the current president has statements of support from 207 countries," Moller said. "Denmark is not among those countries. And we’re not going to be either."
Moller also added that Denmark are considering leaving FIFA following the recent controversies, explaining that discussions have been taking place with other Nordic nations since August.
"We have been clear about this for a long time. We have been discussing it in the Nordic region since August," he said.
"I’ve thought it again. I imagine that there may be challenges if Denmark leaves on its own.
"But let us see if we cannot have a dialogue on things.
"I have to think about the question of how to restore confidence in FIFA. We must evaluate what has happened, and then we must create a strategy, also with our Nordic colleagues."
