FIFA defends Infantino, attacks UEFA amid civil war

In a statement issued last night, FIFA denounced what it described as a "concerted and ongoing effort" by certain European football bodies to subvert the organisation and its democratically‑elected president. The statement singled out UEFA and the Norwegian Football Federation, the latter of which has publicly urged Infantino to resign after the World Cup sell‑off controversy. FIFA’s response framed the criticism as a political attack aimed at undermining its democratic processes, escalating tensions in the sport’s ongoing civil war. forestarrow.help
