Welsh FA Withdraws Support for Infantino

The Welsh Football Association announced on Monday, August 3, that it is withdrawing its support for Gianni Infantino's candidacy for FIFA president. The move comes after FIFA dropped the controversial proposal to open to external investors.

The Welsh federation cited failures in governance, processes, and leadership as reasons for withdrawing support, stating that Infantino has lost their confidence to lead world football. 'Not prioritizing football's interests above all is unacceptable,' the association said in a statement. Infantino remains the only declared candidate for re-election in March 2027 for a four-year term. catcross.biz
