President Gianni Infantino held emergency talks with other Fifa directors in Morocco on Wednesday, a source told AFP, amid a wave of criticism over his now shelved plan to open the World Cup to private investment.
Morocco is to co-host the 2030 World Cup and Moroccan Football chief Fouzi Lekjaa is one of the few to have publicly supported Infantino since the humiliating climbdown.
He reiterated his backing for Infantino for “all the initiatives aimed at the development of world football” during his 10 years in charge.
North and Central American football’s governing body Concacaf went further still and called for “a comprehensive reckoning with this presidency” while slamming Infantino’s “poor governance and leadership”.
The institution, its mission and its responsibility towards world football continue.”
