FIFA President comments on Somali referee incident at World Cup 2026
FIFA President Gianni Infantino stated that the organization does not have control over all matters related to the World Cup, particularly regarding visa issuance and the entry of certain individuals into the United States. This came after Somali referee Omar Artan was prevented from entering the country. Infantino confirmed that the situation is unfortunate but emphasized that FIFA finds it difficult to impose its decisions on governments and law enforcement authorities. He pointed out that the incident revealed the reality of FIFA's lack of full control over some security and administrative aspects related to the tournament.
