The President of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) stated that the future of FIFA President Gianni Infantino should be decided through election during the 2027 FIFA Congress. This comment follows a period of intense criticism aimed at Infantino, particularly regarding his unsuccessful proposal to sell stakes in the World Cup to private investors.

Infantino, currently facing scrutiny, is reportedly working to maintain his position amidst the backlash. The CAF President's remarks highlight the growing calls for accountability within FIFA's leadership. According to reports, the decisions at the upcoming election will be crucial for the organization's direction.
