Wales withdraws support for Infantino after FIFA stake plan fails

Wales has become the first national federation to formally withdraw support for Gianni Infantino's re-election as FIFA president, citing failures in governance and leadership after the collapse of his plan to sell a stake in World Cup commercial rights. The proposed $4.2bn investment deal was abandoned Friday amid fierce resistance. UEFA and CONCACAF also said they lost confidence in Infantino, who faces re-election at the March Congress in Morocco.
