Infantino Set to Receive World Cup Win But Loses Italy's Support The UEFA reversal on boycotting FIFA tournaments indicates that Gianni Infantino's presidency is under intense scrutiny, with opposition coming from within its own ranks.
Italy has withdrawn its support for Infantino's candidacy in the next presidential election, joining European leagues president Claudius Schaefer in calling for reform.
This decision is not a victory for Infantino but rather a pragmatic choice by UEFA to avoid hurting young players' opportunities.
