2026 World Cup Trump and Balogun Ban Lift
The New York Times revealed that FIFA, the International Football Federation, has exceptionally suspended the ban on U.S. attacker Folarin Balogun, allowing him to participate in the Round of 16 match against Belgium in the 2026 World Cup. This came after former U.S. President Donald Trump contacted FIFA President Gianni Infantino to request a review of the suspension. This decision marks a historic precedent since 1962 and has angered the Belgian Football Federation, which considers it a violation of regulations. The report raises questions about Trump's relationship with Infantino and its influence on sports-related decisions.
