Infantino Plans 2027 FIFA Re-Election Bid Amid Backlash — Sep 6, 2026FIFA President Gianni Infantino confirmed he will seek a fourth term in the March 2027 presidential election in Rabat, despite ongoing backlash over his plan to privatize FIFA’s commercial rights. European and regional bodies such as UEFA, CONCACAF and the Asian Confederation have pressured for accountability and even threatened actions like no-confidence votes or boycotts, though FIFA supporters frame the bid as a reform-driven continuation of his leadership.
