The English Football Association is set to withdraw its support for Gianni Infantino's re-election as Fifa president after his scrapped World Cup privatisation bid.
Infantino's leadership is under intense scrutiny, with a widespread loss of confidence coming after his failed attempt to sell off stakes in the World Cup to private investors.
The FA is preparing to send a letter to Fifa to withdraw its backing, piling more pressure on Infantino.
Trump, however, insisted he had not spoken about the sell-off plan with Infantino before it was scrapped.
Several African and Asian football bodies, including those from Morocco, Egypt and Qatar, have publicly voiced their support for Infantino over the weekend.
