FIFA President Gianni Infantino remains committed to seeking re-election despite renewed opposition following the collapse of a plan to sell private investors a 20% stake in the World Cup and other FIFA competitions. The proposal was abandoned in July after widespread backlash, prompting calls for his resignation from UEFA, the AFC and CONCACAF. FIFA said Infantino will stand in 2027, while an earlier announcement had described his bid as a fourth term the following year. He retains support from the African and South American confederations, and no challenger has formally declared a candidacy. Infantino, 56, declined to discuss whether he regretted the turmoil while attending the Under-20 World Cup in Poland, saying there would be a right place and time to address it.
