FIFA President looks on during a press conference

His comments come a day after David Triesman, former chairman of the English FA, said four Fifa executive committee members asked for favours in exchange for votes for England to host the 2018 World Cup.

"There is a desire to try to work and change Fifa from the inside," Robertson told BBC Radio. "If Fifa proves unable to do that, then I would say all options are possible."

Triesman told a UK parliamentary committee on Tuesday (May 10) that he was asked for cash, TV rights and a knighthood in exchange for votes in the ballot on who should host the Cup. England garnered the least number of votes.
