Infantino Faces New FIFA Salary Scandal
An investigation by The Times, a British newspaper, reveals that Gianni Infantino, the president of FIFA, received millions of dollars in additional payments that did not appear in official financial reports. These payments are related to funds from his American organization for the 2026 World Cup and luxury accommodation expenses in Miami. The total amount of these payments, which reached approximately $1.76 million in 2024, was not disclosed in the official figures, raising questions about transparency and compliance with financial regulations that Infantino pledged to follow after previous corruption scandals. Despite the crisis, Infantino continues to enjoy the support of most national associations and is currently facing upcoming FIFA presidential elections set for March 2027, amid calls for an independent investigation into the financial circumstances, as he tries to maintain his influence within the global football organization.
