Confederation of African Football (CAF) President Patrice Motsepe has stated that FIFA President Gianni Infantino's future should be decided exclusively through an election by FIFA's 211 member associations.

The scrutiny surrounding the FIFA president intensifies following Ireland's decision to become the latest federation to withdraw its support for Infantino.
