FA Withdraws Support for Infantino After Wales Pulls Back

Published August 3, 2026 · Updated August 3, 2026 · The Guardian

England's FA has decided to withdraw its support for Gianni Infantino's re‑election as FIFA president following Wales' earlier withdrawal. The move adds to mounting pressure on Infantino's troubled term.

The Football Association (FA) has formally announced it will no longer back Gianni Infantino for a fourth term as FIFA president. This follows the Welsh FA’s decision to drop its endorsement, and comes as more European nations consider similar actions to force Infantino’s resignation.

The FA’s withdrawal signals a growing loss of confidence in Infantino’s leadership amid ongoing controversies, and may intensify calls for a leadership change within FIFA. sweetbonanza.qpon
