Prime Minister Andy Burnham said Gianni Infantino was "the wrong man" to lead Fifa after a senior adviser to the president resigned and a third confederation opposed his plan to sell stakes in competitions to private investors. "The idea that it could even be brought forward shows that, in my view, [he] is the wrong man to lead the organisation." The AFC added Infantino's plan could not "realistically achieve the necessary broad consensus and unity required to move forward". The AFC's statement means Infantino's plans are unlikely to be approved by Fifa members if put to a vote. Should all member associations back the stance of their governing body, that would mean 136 nations are against Infantino's plan.
