Fifa reportedly paid US taxes of president Infantino
A joint investigation by Le Monde and The New York Times reports that Fifa reportedly covered Gianni Infantino's US taxes between 2024 and 2026, an amount estimated at around 3.6 million euros. The benefit reportedly originated from a mechanism designed for employees relocated to the United States ahead of the 2026 World Cup, which was extended to the president during a 2024 meeting without being formalised in official documents. The proposal reportedly came from Bruno Chiomento, chairman of the governance, audit and compliance committee. Fifa responded: "All applicable laws have been respected."
