Four candidates aim to succeed Infantino
FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association) faces increasing pressure against its president, Gianni Infantino, following controversy over a proposed plan to sell broadcasting rights and distribute financial rewards of $20 million to member associations. This has sparked widespread criticism and led to some continental federations, such as UEFA and CONCACAF, severing ties. As a result, Infantino announced the withdrawal of his new investment plans amid growing speculation about potential candidates to succeed him, including CONCACAF president Victor Montagliani, AFC president Salman bin Ibrahim, Paris Saint-Germain president Nasser Al-Khelaifi, and FIFA Secretary General Matthias Grafström. The announcement of FIFA’s new president is expected to take place at the Congress meeting in Mexico in March 2026, with potential competition for the position amidst deteriorating relations between Infantino and the member associations.
