Saudi FA backs Infantino over FIFA shares
The Saudi Football Federation formally expressed its support for FIFA President Gianni Infantino, who is facing widespread criticism after failing to pass a plan to sell shares in the World Cup and other tournaments to private investors. The Saudi Federation acknowledged Infantino's efforts in promoting unity and development within global football, reaffirming its backing for his acknowledgment of the mistake and withdrawal of the proposal. Although Infantino withdrew the privatization project, pressure continued from European and Asian federations, calling for his resignation due to the failure of the share-selling campaign. However, Infantino rejected these calls and strongly endorsed his policies, while the Saudi Federation expressed its readiness to promote dialogue and consensus among various stakeholders in international football.
