Blatter’s trip had been planned for October 25 in order to place the first building block for a synthetic playing field in Cuba, whose construction is set to begin in January 2013 at Havana’s La Polar stadium.
FIFA explained that sports politics related to the organization of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil forced Blatter to postpone his visit to the island until early next year.
