President Donald Trump warned FIFA that replacing Gianni Infantino as president would be a terrible mistake that would harm the organization's future profitability.
Infantino faces mounting pressure to step down following a controversial proposal to sell a 20 percent stake in FIFA tournaments to private investors.

Several member associations, including those from England and Wales, have officially withdrawn their support for Infantino's 2027 re-election bid.
