FIFA have lashed out at what they described as a “concerted and ongoing effort” to remove president Gianni Infantino from his role.
While UEFA continue to promise boycotts of future FIFA competitions without assurances that Infantino will not reignite plans to sell shares in the World Cup, accusations against the FIFA president turned more personal on Friday when a report from The Telegraph claimed a former “lover” of Infantino received a six-figure payout to leave UEFA during Infantino’s time with the organization.
