The revealed motive behind Infante's controversial idea: Here's how much he would have made if it had come to life

Gianni Infantino, president of FIFA, proposed creating a company within FIFA to manage World Cup tournaments and sell shares to private investors. This idea faced significant criticism and was ultimately rejected by all football federations and confederations. According to The Times, Infantino earns around three million euros annually as FIFA president, but his proposal could have increased his income tenfold, reaching 30 million euros per year. This revelation contrasts with Infantino’s claims that he would never use his position for personal financial gain.
