Aleksander Ceferin

For years, FIFA President Gianni Infantino bought loyalty, eliminated opposition, and kept Africa in his pocket. Now, at least 15 football associations on the continent are rebelling, Europe and America are uniting against him, and the biggest threat is coming from within the house. Is this the end of the football dictator, or will the bribes save him again?

Aleksander Ceferin sharply attacks the FIFA president following the scrapped plan to sell part of the World Cup rights to private investors: "We will not allow the sale of a sport that belongs to everyone. Donald Trump? You have to be naive if you think a politician is really your friend."

The struggle surrounding the future of FIFA President Gianni Infantino is escalating. Patrice Motsepe, FIFA Vice President and President of the Confederation of African Football, has come to the defense of the official procedure within the organization and warned against attempts to oust Infantino before the upcoming elections.
