Sports: Infantino Gets Re-Election Boost After Securing Asia, Africa’s Backing
FIFA President Gianni Infantino has received a major boost in his bid for re-election after securing the support of both the Confederation of African Football and the Asian Football Confederation ahead of the 2027 FIFA presidential election. The two confederations control 101 votes out of FIFA’s 211-member voting bloc, giving Infantino a strong advantage as he seeks another term in office. The AFC and CAF publicly endorsed Infantino following his confirmation at FIFA’s Congress in Vancouver that he intends to run again in 2027. AFC President Sheikh Salman bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa praised Infantino’s leadership, stating that FIFA is currently in its strongest position and reaffirming Asia’s continued support since his first election in 2016. Infantino, who became FIFA president in 2016 after the downfall of Sepp Blatter amid a corruption scandal, has overseen major reforms and record revenues during his tenure. Despite criticism over his ties to Donald Trump and controversial changes such as the expansion of the FIFA World Cup to 48 teams, FIFA says the organisation has significantly increased funding for its member associations through the FIFA Forward Program.
