UEFA, CONCACAF and the AFC launched a scathing attack on FIFA president Gianni Infantino in a Times of India report published on August 10, 2026, accusing him of a fundamental breach of trust over World Cup sale plans.

The confederations said the matter represented a failure of judgment, not just a communication issue.

FIFA defended Infantino, calling the criticism an effort to undermine him, and Infantino apologised for the process surrounding the World Cup proposal.
