UEFA President Michel Platini is on course to serve a third term after no rival candidate emerged before the deadline.
The former France captain was first nominated to run European football in 2007 and stood unopposed for a second term in 2011.
Platini, who introduced a minimum 10-game ban for racial abuse by players, will be confirmed for a third term as president through 2019 at the UEFA Congress in Vienna in March after UEFA announced "the cut-off deadline of 24 December 2014 has passed for submissions of candidacy" with no rival candidates, Sport24 reported.
However, Platini has quashed rumours revolving around him challenging Sepp Blatter for the FIFA presidency in May.
