FIFA President Gianni Infantino has sought support from the Trump administration after his abandoned plan to sell a stake in World Cup commercial rights triggered mounting criticism, the New York Post reported. Infantino repeatedly failed to reach President Donald Trump by phone since the plan collapsed Friday, and scheduled talks with Secretary of State Marco Rubio, though a State Department official said no such call was planned. The retreat raises scrutiny over Infantino's re-election bid.
