New scandal surfaces involving FIFA president
The British newspaper "The Telegraph" has exposed a scandal involving the European Football Association (UEFA) receiving large financial compensations from the International Federation (FIFA) during Gianni Infantino's tenure as UEFA General Secretary. Investigations revealed that an employee who had a relationship with Infantino received significant financial compensation upon leaving the union, in addition to covering her tuition fees for a Master’s in Business Administration, which amounted to approximately £45,000 per year. The employee's salary also increased by 30%, reaching around €147,000 annually, along with a promotion during her time at UEFA. This information comes as part of an investigation that rekindles debates about Infantino’s relationship with his period at UEFA and the privileges the employee received, raising questions about the integrity of that period—especially since UEFA has confirmed that the payments were legal at the time.
