US cities sue Infantino over World Cup funds
Reports reveal that FIFA, the International Football Federation, and its president Gianni Infantino personally promised to provide one million dollars to each host city in the United States for the 2026 World Cup, to help offset part of the hosting costs. However, these funds have not been received to date, despite weeks having passed since the tournament ended. Cities that bore heavy expenses, such as Kansas City and New York, are demanding reimbursement and compensation. Meanwhile, FIFA remains silent and avoids responding, even though the organization achieved record-breaking profits exceeding $15 billion from the tournament. Infantino is facing internal and political setbacks within the federation amid increasing criticism and legal pressures from American cities seeking to pursue legal action against him for failing to fulfill the financial promises related to the largest World Cup in history.
