- Fifa president Gianni Infantino apologised to the Fifa Council during a three-and-a-half-hour meeting in Zurich for failing to consult them on his collapsed Fifa Forward Enterprise plan to sell tournament stakes to private investors.
- Football Association chair Debbie Hewitt stated that Infantino is “not fit to be Fifa president” after he failed to answer critical questions regarding the World Cup sell-off scheme and other recent controversies.
- Hewitt highlighted that Infantino failed to address questions concerning his decision to overturn Folarin Balogun's suspension at the World Cup following a request from US president Donald Trump.
- Uefa, alongside opposition from the Asian and Concacaf confederations, continues to oppose Infantino's leadership, maintaining their loss of confidence despite his plans to stand for re-election in March.
- Infantino requested council members to submit their questions in writing, but Hewitt confirmed she received no new information during the meeting to alter the FA's stance against his presidency.
