Trump Backs Infantino Amid FIFA Governance Crisis

US President Donald Trump has publicly endorsed FIFA President Gianni Infantino, stating it would be a "terrible mistake" to remove him from his position. Trump's comments, made on Truth Social, come as Infantino faces mounting pressure over a controversial plan to sell a 21% stake in the men's World Cup to private investors. The plan has drawn sharp criticism from UEFA, Concacaf, and the Asian Football Confederation, who have called for an independent review of FIFA's governance, a request that has been ignored by Infantino.
