FIFA : Face à la contestation, Gianni Infantino cherche le soutien de Donald Trump
Facing growing dissent within world football, Gianni Infantino is reportedly trying to bolster his support by turning to the United States. The FIFA president is said to be seeking the backing of the Trump administration, just months before the organization's presidential election.
According to reports in the New York Post and the BBC, Infantino is expected to hold talks with several US officials to solidify his political support. The Swiss leader reportedly wants to secure the backing of US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
This move comes as Infantino's candidacy for another term as FIFA president faces resistance. Several federations have reportedly already decided not to support his re-election, scheduled for next March.
For the FIFA president, the stakes are therefore high. With criticism mounting regarding his governance and some of his projects, securing the support of American political figures could allow him to strengthen his position before the election.
As the election approaches, Gianni Infantino seems to be multiplying his efforts to preserve his influence and gather enough support around his candidacy.
