Following his retirement as a player, Platini was the France national team coach for four years and was the co-organizer of the 1998 World Cup in France. In 2007, he was elected as the president of the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA).
He was the first former player to become UEFA President.
He also held the positions of chairman of FIFA's Technical and Development Committee and vice-president of the French Football Federation.
In 2015, however, he was banned from football administration for conflict of interest by the FIFA Ethics Committee.
