FIFA issued a statement on Saturday defending its president, Gianni Infantino, against what it described as a concerted and ongoing effort to undermine his leadership. The announcement came a day after a British newspaper report detailed allegations tied to Infantino's previous tenure at UEFA.
In its statement, FIFA asserted that it would not support, facilitate, or tolerate any election processes for the presidency that fail to align with its established statutes, democratic procedures, and governance framework. The warning underscores a deepening leadership crisis within the global governing body.
