Global Football Fans Petition for FIFA President Gianni Infantino's Resignation
Football fan groups worldwide have launched a petition calling for FIFA President Gianni Infantino's resignation following his attempt to sell future World Cup profits to private investors. The campaign, using the hashtag #InfantinoOut, criticizes Infantino's leadership for lack of transparency, concentration of power, and past controversial decisions like supporting the European Super League and proposing biennial World Cups. Despite criticism from UEFA, CONCACAF, and the Asian Football Confederation, Infantino has refused to step down. The petition also demands a restructuring of FIFA's governance to restore trust.
