Fifa president Gianni Infantino is still fighting for his job, and battle lines are being drawn up as the election for his final term looms.
Until a few weeks ago, Infantino seemed assured of continuing as Fifa president in the upcoming vote, scheduled for March 2027.
Infantino has fought back, and this week he secured the backing of Fifa’s top executives at a crisis meeting in Rabat, Morocco.
But ultimately the power to oust Infantino lies with the 211 national football associations that make up Fifa.
