UEFA setback questions Infantino renewal
The President of the International Football Federation (FIFA), Gianni Infantino, faces a severe political crisis following the South American Football Confederation (CONMEBOL) joining the opposition front that includes the European Union, the Asian Football Confederation, and CONCACAF. CONMEBOL has expressed concern over unilateral actions taken by FIFA without institutional dialogue, warning that these disagreements could threaten the organization of the 2030 World Cup. They also hinted at the possibility of a vote of no confidence in Infantino during the upcoming presidential elections, especially after he rejected the privatization of broadcasting rights and sponsorship for the World Cup, supported some federations' boycott of the 2030 World Cup, and proposed expanding the number of teams to 64. This situation is causing an unprecedented organizational and political crisis within FIFA.
