(AP Photo/Julia Demaree Nikhinson)Former Portugal player Luis Figo was the latest to call for FIFA president Gianni Infantino’s resignation after the latter’s failed attempt to sell stakes in profits from future World Cups.
“Today I join others from across our game and call for Gianni Infantino to resign as FIFA President.
He has lied, deceived and tried to feather his own nest at the expense of the game he is supposed to serve.
It is too late to save his dignity but it is not too late to save football.
