Fifa president has fiduciary duty to fifa and should look for Fita and football for long term .. why sell a stake when you are already profitable. It shows lack of vision for future .. thus he should go.
Confidence vote immediately
FIFA is corrupt anyway. So, none of this makes any difference.
Get rid of Infantino!! Enough of the Trump and Kushner corruption!! Thank you UEFA and others for standing up.
He should still leave, and there should be a fifa replacement
GREED by trump and his family…once again. How amercians still have that greedy liar in office is a testament of most amercian values.
Well we're still mad. He should step down.
Uefa should keep boycot threat in place until the fifa president is removed
Sue Cook has pulled out. Can you call Bill Oddie ?
I do not know why but my thoughts are pointing to Trump had something to do with this maybe wrong
for our next one, can we have one that doesn't absolutely scream 'crook' straight into our faces?
American influence, sadly.
For now…
He'll try this BS again, as soon as the outrage dies down. That or something else
See what happens to these companies when enough people just say no?🤷♂️👍
I have a feeling that Trump has his grubby ,toxic fingerprints all over this .
Now sack him… then launch a full investigation on the relationship between him and the criminal Trump family
Very blatant corruption. Infantino isn't even trying to hide it
The blatant corruption is appalling, they are not hiding anymore they are still not out of the Albania scandal and they already created another one. Shameful.
Baldy needs to go.
Will not proceed… FIFA code for it has already been done, it was done 30 yrs ago, we forget to tell you…
