Infantino's FIFA presidency under threat as scandal escalates

Gianni Infantino, FIFA president since February 2016, is facing the most serious crisis of his tenure after a new scandal erupted that many observers believe could end in his resignation. Infantino replaced Sepp Blatter, who left FIFA amid a major corruption scandal, but now faces mounting calls for his own removal. He has repeatedly pushed boundaries over his decade in charge, but this latest affair is seen as a step too far.
