The FIFA vice president is already serving a 90-day suspension while an investigation is held into a $2 million sum he received from the suspended FIFA president Sepp Blatter.
Platini's lawyer Thibaud d'Ales revealed the FIFA's life ban demand which he described as a "scandal" and "excessive".
"This ban is subject to the proof of corruption, but the punishment is clearly excessive," D'Ales said. It's not based on anything in the case."
Blatter's representatives refused to comment on whether the same request has been made against the Swiss official.
