Infantino accused of abusing power
FIFA President Gianni Infantino faced an ethical complaint accusing him of abuse of power and engaging in inappropriate relationships with U.S. President Donald Trump, allegedly to curry favor with the latter. The organization "Fair Square" for Human Rights has submitted a complaint to FIFA's Ethics Committee, presenting evidence that Infantino violated FIFA's Code of Conduct by colluding with Trump on several incidents, including interference in matters related to matches and financial investigations, as well as plans to sell stakes in tournaments like the World Cup to private investors, which sparked widespread controversy. Despite the criticisms and allegations, Infantino intends to run for a new term as FIFA president in the upcoming March elections, while several European entities have threatened to boycott FIFA events if current policies persist.
