Football Confederations Consider No-Confidence Vote Against FIFA President Infantino
Several powerful football confederations, including UEFA, AFC, and CONCACAF, are reportedly considering a no-confidence vote against FIFA President Gianni Infantino ahead of his scheduled 2027 re-election. The move follows controversy over Infantino's abandoned plan to sell World Cup commercial rights, which led to a crisis of confidence among member associations. Denmark's football federation has pledged to find a credible alternative candidate. Meanwhile, fan groups have launched the InfantinoOut campaign, demanding his resignation over transparency and accountability concerns.
