FIFA backed Infantino on Wednesday despite his botched plan to sell World Cup stakes. The organization's senior leadership reaffirmed their support for his presidency after a summit in Morocco. Infantino apologized for the errors tied to the failed investment scheme. The governing body's public show of confidence comes as Infantino faces ongoing scrutiny over his handling of FIFA's finances and strategic decisions. The vote of support from staff suggests the internal power structure remains intact around him, though his failed venture to monetize the World Cup signals tensions between modernizing FIFA's revenue streams and resistance from traditionalists within the organization.
