Fifa President Infantino Bows to Pressure, Announces Independent Governance Review Amidst World Cup Sale Debacle
Fifa President Gianni Infantino has announced an independent external review of the organization’s governance following intense pressure from member associations and council members, particularly regarding a controversial World Cup investment plan and the Folarin Balogun issue.
He has invited proposals for strengthening Fifa’s decision-making processes, which will be discussed at the next council meeting. This move comes as Infantino also faces demands to release a portion of Fifa’s significant cash reserves to its member nations.
