FIFA crisis deepens before elections

Gianni Infantino, President of the International Federation of Football Associations (FIFA), is facing widespread criticism over his attempt to sell part of the World Cup rights through the "FIFA Forward" project, which was withdrawn due to errors and misconduct in handling. After a meeting in Morocco, the federation acknowledged its mistakes and apologized to its 211 member associations, reaffirming its full support for Infantino. The proposal had raised approximately $4.2 billion to finance the development of football, but it faced strong criticism from the European Union and many associations. Moreover, the crisis has impacted Infantino’s chances of re-election in next March, especially amid declining support from some associations and accusations of lack of transparency and consultation.
