Following intense criticism and calls for him to resign as FIFA president, Gianni Infantino is receiving support from President Donald Trump. President Trump declared his support for Infantino on Truth Social on Monday, saying in part that "FIFA would be making a terrible mistake if, for any reason, they even considered replacing President Gianni Infantino." While the majority of CONCACAF has demanded change, it's important to note that Mexico’s football federation has publicly backed Infantino. On Saturday, FIFA defended Infantino against what they called a “concerted and ongoing effort” to undermine his leadership of the organization. Infantino has served as FIFA president since his initial election on Feb. 26, 2016.
