The Fifa chief operating officer, Kevin Lamour, has been sacked after openly criticising Gianni Infantino’s ill-fated plan to sell parts of the World Cup to private investors
obviously this will come to nothing but I can't imagine it can hurt in terms of piling pressure on him to step down/on the other bodies not to re-elect him.
Yeah they won’t win but I just love this relentless hounding of the man. If we’ve learnt anything from this whole scenario it’s that UEFA really really hate Infantino
It seems like he has FIFA’s “unwavering support” but that’ll be largely a PR exercise at the moment, so they might all turn on him when given the chance.
