The article discusses the efforts of some of the most prominent continental football federations—namely UEFA, the Asian Football Confederation, and CONCACAF—to push for a vote of no confidence in FIFA President Gianni Infantino, aiming to remove him from his position. This comes amidst dissatisfaction over a proposal to sell a share of the World Cup to external investors, a move unprecedented in FIFA’s 122-year history. Such a step could have political and legal consequences, as an extraordinary general assembly could be convened if supported by five of the 211 member associations, although the process entails complex procedures. While Infantino has announced his intention to run for a new term in 2027, support from some Arab federations and other countries remains strong. Meanwhile, continental federations fear that failing to issue a vote could bolster his position and strengthen his standing ahead of the elections. The federations have accused FIFA leadership of breaching trust and criticized the management of the investment proposal, amid waning internal support following the resignation of officials and sharp criticism of Infantino’s leadership style.
