Belgium’s national football governing body has confirmed it will not support Gianni Infantino’s campaign for another term as Fifa president, pointing to serious concerns over transparency, governance, and the ruling that cleared Folarin Balogun from serving a mandatory World Cup suspension.
Infantino, the head of world football’s governing body, has come under growing pressure after a controversial proposal to sell commercial stakes in the World Cup provoked significant backlash. Despite the opposition, Fifa announced on Sunday that he intends to stand again in next year’s election for a final term that would keep him in power until 2031.
