Former United States President Donald Trump has issued a public warning, stating that any move to oust Gianni Infantino from his position as FIFA president would be a grave error. Writing on Truth Social, Trump asserted that the international football organization would struggle to achieve the same levels of profit and success without Infantino at the helm.
Trump highlighted Infantino’s leadership during the most recent World Cup, which he described as significantly more successful than previous iterations. The former president emphasized that replacing him would negatively impact the organization’s future performance. Trump’s comments come as Infantino faces increasing pressure from various football federations calling for his resignation. This backlash stems from criticism regarding Infantino’s controversial proposal to sell shares of the World Cup.
