Luis Figo Calls for Infantino’s Resignation After FIFA Investment Plan Collapse
Former Portugal captain Luis Figo has called on FIFA President Gianni Infantino to resign, accusing him of damaging the integrity of world football. Figo's demand follows FIFA's withdrawal of a proposal to create the FIFA Forward Enterprise, a commercial subsidiary that would have allowed private investors to buy a minority stake in FIFA's commercial rights, including those linked to the World Cup. The plan faced strong opposition from football stakeholders, with UEFA reportedly warning that its member associations could boycott FIFA competitions if it went ahead. Figo said Infantino had lost the trust of many people within the game and should leave office.
