Gianni Infantino holds crisis meeting amid rising opposition within FIFA

Gianni Infantino has summoned senior FIFA officials for a crisis meeting in Morocco, scheduled for Wednesday, as he faces increasing pressure to maintain his presidency. Recent criticism has intensified following his controversial proposal to sell commercial stakes in the World Cup, which was met with backlash from key FIFA figures including secretary general Mattias Grafstrom and Arsene Wenger. Infantino's leadership has come under scrutiny after UEFA and several national associations expressed loss of confidence in him. The situation has escalated with accusations of 'blackmail' from Jordan FA president Prince Ali bin Hussein. Brazilian officials from the Confederation of African Football have supported Infantino, but UEFA is considering legal action regarding the sell-off scheme and has reaffirmed its opposition to his plans.
