Governing body for association football in New Zealand
The FIFA president has faced widespread criticism after proposing private investment in World Cup rights. Following a backdown, UEFA and others say they no longer trust his leadership while Africa’s CAF and other allies show support as Infantino travels to Morocco to navigate a crisis ahead of March elections.
The global football federation is confronting a fracturing alliance as three major confederations call for a review of Gianni Infantino’s leadership amid a shelved plan to sell World Cup commercial rights; New Zealand withdraws support, while Caf and Conmebol back Infantino for a fourth term. The next months will determine Infantino’s fate at the Rabat congress.
