Over 100,000 people have signed a fiery petition demanding FIFA investigate its president, Gianni Infantino, over alleged ties to Donald Trump and violations of ethical codes. Spearheaded by human rights group FairSquare, the complaint accuses Infantino of politically ingratiating himself with Trump—highlighting incidents like Trump’s intervention in a World Cup red card decision and Infantino’s scrapped plan to sell FIFA events to private investors. The group also alleges Infantino secretly created a FIFA Peace Prize awarded to Trump without approval and bypassed governance protocols for a business venture. Despite initial acknowledgment from FIFA’s Ethics Committee, no action has followed. FairSquare is now pushing for Infantino’s two-year ban from football as he seeks re-election for a fourth term, challenging FIFA’s ability to police its own leadership.
