Today I join others from across our game and call for Gianni Infantino to resign as FIFA President.

Infantino has debased the office that he promised to elevate. He has lied, deceived and tried to feather his own nest at the expense of the game he is supposed to serve. 

He has lost the support of his senior staff, his closest advisers, the vast majority of people who devote their lives to this sport and even, it would seem, the FIFA Peace Prize winner. 

It is too late to save his dignity but it is not too late to save football. He should go. Now.

@JonCJay11 @MonkeyDLenin100 @usasupersoccer Spot on…. You have a team that is top of their league 25 min away but since they aren’t in your league you drive 2 hours to play league game Saturday and Sunday. You have to stay the night because one is scheduled at 4 pm on Saturday and the other at 8 am Sunday.

@AnthonyZoric FIFA (as an organization) has lost its way. It’s run more like a corrupt government following the dollar, instead of the integrity of the games themselves.

🚨EXCLUSIVE: Thierry Henry says the world cup in the USA is looking like a mess, Iran says FIFA has withdrawn its World Cup ticket allocation, Somali referee Omar Artan was who was appointed by FIFA to ref in the 2026 World Cup denied entry, expensive ticket and says politcs had no business in football

"The more I look at this World Cup, the more it feels like football is fighting battles that have nothing to do with football. That's what worries me."

"We're talking about the biggest sporting event on the planet, yet the conversation isn't only about players, tactics, or the countries that qualified. It's about travel issues, ticket disputes, and politics."

"Look at the situation involving Iran. Reports say the country's ticket allocation for supporters was withdrawn just days before the tournament. Whether you're Iranian or not, fans should be part of the World Cup experience."

"Then you have the Omar Artan story. FIFA selected him because they believed he was one of the best referees in the world. He earned that opportunity on merit."

"Yet he was denied entry into the United States despite reportedly holding a valid visa. Suddenly the story stopped being about football and became about something else entirely."

"I feel for him because becoming the first Somali referee at a World Cup should have been a celebration for African football, not a controversy."

"Then there are the supporters. Many people have complained about the cost of attending matches, accommodation, and travel. The World Cup should be accessible to ordinary football fans, not only the wealthiest ones."

"Football has always been at its best when it unites people from different cultures, religions, and political backgrounds. That's the beauty of the game."

"The danger is when political disputes begin influencing who can attend, who can officiate, and how supporters experience the tournament. That is a road football should avoid."

"I still believe the World Cup will produce incredible moments, but FIFA must make sure that football remains the main story. Politics has enough stages already; the football pitch shouldn't be one of them."

@ginaprodankelly I agree. The crazy thing is how much the landscape may have been different if Wolstein hadn’t passed away. I think we are the resurgence of soccer in Cleveland. We had 18-20 thousand watching the Force!

@utdWiley Not a card. It would be like me arguing that the attacker should be called for a dangerous play. Good action and let’s keep the game moving after cleaning up the injury

@reealreality @mynameiselnino1 @atrupar His arguments are based on him continuing to line his pockets. If it’s not oil or coal he’s not very interested. Soon as Elon left Washington. We haven’t heard much about the Tesla platform. He helped get him in the spotlight to repay him for his donations and campaigning.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

God does not bless any conflict. Anyone who is a disciple of Christ, the Prince of Peace, is never on the side of those who once wielded the sword and today drop bombs. Military action will not create space for freedom or times of #Peace, which comes only from the patient promotion of coexistence and dialogue among peoples.

@CroatianSoccer I agree! Tommy is a great guy and has a wonderful place! Highly recommend the stay and the boat tour with Robert.
