Scottish FA Withdraws Support for Infantino's FIFA Re-election

The Scottish Football Association (SFA) has declared it will not support Gianni Infantino's re-election bid for the FIFA presidency, citing a loss of confidence in his leadership. This decision marks a significant challenge to Infantino's campaign for another term at the helm of world football's governing body.

The SFA's stance comes amid growing scrutiny of Infantino's tenure.

FairSquare is requesting that Infantino be declared ineligible to stand for re-election.
