Norway's Soccer Federation Demands Gianni Infantino's Resignation

Norway's soccer federation has officially requested the resignation of Gianni Infantino, increasing the pressure on FIFA's president as of Friday in Manchester, England.

This demand follows Infantino's unsuccessful attempt to sell stakes in the World Cup, which has led to growing dissent within the organization. During a meeting on Thursday, federation president Lise Klaveness expressed a complete loss of trust in Infantino, citing ongoing concerns about his leadership.

The Norwegian federation's announcement adds to the challenges Infantino faces, especially after UEFA reaffirmed its lack of confidence in him despite FIFA's retraction of the controversial plan. Additionally, the English Football Association has withdrawn its support for Infantino's re-election, while he has received backing from Mexico's federation. The Norwegian federation plans to file a new complaint with FIFA's ethics committee regarding various issues, indicating a call for significant changes in FIFA's governance.
