Qatar challenges AFC over open letter attacking FIFA's Infantino

Qatar Football Association President Hamad bin Khalifa Al-Thani has written to AFC President Sheikh Salman bin Ibrahim Al Khalifa, complaining that he and the QFA were not consulted before the AFC joined UEFA and CONCACAF in an open letter criticizing FIFA President Gianni Infantino. The letter, seen by Reuters, questions the AFC's authority to speak for its 47 member associations. This exposes divisions within the AFC amid a leadership crisis over Infantino's failed private investment proposal.
