NEW: Confederation of African Football executive committee “unanimously reconfirmed its support for FIFA President Gianni Infantino and thanked him for his support for African Football, over the years”.
There is no measurement tool to capture the scale of this embarrassing take. The FIFA President is being held to account for his own nefarious actions. It is a big part of the job to further global development. The ‘friend’ gimmick is a way to buy loyalty, secure votes, and receive endorsements like this which fly in the face of reality.
Is this ‘friend’ the one that successfully pushed for a change in the frequency of AFCON? That made the 2025 tournament move for his Club World Cup? That didn’t deliver the promises over African Super League? That did nothing when African Referee of the Year Omar Artan was robbed of his World Cup dream? Who didn’t help African fans that couldn’t travel to the WC due to blanket bans or the visa bond of $15,000, which was dropped too late and saw Vozinha's own mother miss his historic debut.
Do you know who Gianni Infantino considers his friend? Donald Trump. Tell me, what’s his position on South Africa and how has he treated the country, Minister?
