FIFA President Gianni Infantino is facing significant backlash after plans emerged to sell football to investors, potentially jeopardizing his bid for a third term. Following a World Cup that generated record revenue despite ongoing controversies, Infantino appeared poised for re-election. However, the proposal to open football up to external investment has sparked widespread outrage within the sport. Critics argue the plan fundamentally alters the nature of the game and prioritizes profit over sporting integrity. The scale of the backlash is substantial enough that Infantino's position as FIFA President could be at risk before the next election. His future now hangs in the balance as the football world reacts to the controversial investment scheme.
