If a lot of the world is concerned about Donald Trump’s return to power in the United States, there will be relief in one high office. That is Gianni Infantino’s, which is now facing far fewer complications ahead of the 2026 World Cup and so much more. One figure who knows the Fifa president insists he will be “100 percent delighted, maybe even more”.
Infantino’s quick congratulations to Trump on Instagram, his current communications channel of choice, said much more than the bland statement intended. “We will have a great Fifa World Cup and a great Fifa Club World Cup in the United States of America,” Infantino said in a post replete with emojis. “Football unites the world!”
