The prized tickets are part of a £1.5million bonanza scooped by Sepp Blatter and his cronies for London 2012.
They will enjoy the most sought-after views in the Olympic stadium
The preferential treatment will infuriate the 900,000 sports fans who were snubbed in the public ballot for seats.
Families who failed to secure even a single seat for any event of the tournament will wonder why disgraced Blatter has been given the red-carpet treatment.
He has been gifted a coveted access-all-areas pass to the Games and can look forward to a host of perks including being ferried around London in a chauffeur-driven BMW.
It means he will be able to watch blue riband events such as the men’s 100m final for free, and with views superior to anyone else’s, even those lucky enough to have secured top-price £725 seats.
Blatter was re-elected president of Fifa, world football’s governing body, last week despite damaging corruption claims swirling around his organisation. In a farcical ballot, the 75-year-old Swiss was the only candidate standing, after his main rival dropped out amid bribery allegations.
