France opposes Infantino in FIFA leadership

The French Football Federation officially announced the withdrawal of its support for Gianni Infantino's bid for a new term. This comes amid increasing international opposition to him following his failure to push through a plan to sell shares of FIFA's tournaments, most notably the World Cup, to private investors. Europe, in particular, has seen a decline in support from major Confederations such as England, Italy, and the European Union, which have called for fundamental changes in FIFA's leadership due to these policies. Nevertheless, Infantino continues to enjoy backing from South American and African federations. The FIFA presidential election is scheduled to take place in Rabat in March 2027 to choose a successor for him, amidst an unprecedented level of football-related division.
