Scottish FA withdraws support for FIFA president Infantino
Sports2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported15m ago
The Scottish Football Association (Scottish FA) has officially withdrawn its support for FIFA president Gianni Infantino. The decision follows Infantino's controversial and failed attempt to sell off stakes in the World Cup to private investors.
With this announcement, Scotland joins a growing coalition of European football federations—including England, Ireland, and Wales—that have already scrapped their backing of the FIFA president. According to the Scottish FA, the withdrawal of support was specifically prompted by a perceived "lack of transparency" surrounding the proposed World Cup investment plans.
