Trump proposes FIFA chief as UN secretary
American media reports have indicated that U.S. President Donald Trump wishes to nominate Gianni Infantino, the President of FIFA, for the position of Secretary-General of the United Nations, succeeding António Guterres, whose term ends at the close of this year. Trump believes that Infantino possesses a strong international presence and the ability to unite peoples, with widespread respect and a capacity to bring people together. These reports come after his meeting with Infantino during the 2026 World Cup celebrations hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico. However, nominating Infantino would require approval from the United Nations Security Council members, including the five permanent members with veto power, before the final vote by the UN General Assembly. So far, Infantino has not announced any intention to run, nor has there been any official statement from FIFA regarding the matter.
