Gianni Infantino's position as FIFA president is under significant pressure following a failed proposal to sell stakes in the World Cup. Member associations are now divided, with a growing number of countries opposing his re-election bid.

As recently as mid-July, Gianni Infantino was considered a shoo-in to be re-elected as Fifa president next March.
All but a handful of Fifa's 210 members had endorsed his bid for a fourth term in charge of world football, and he faced no meaningful challenge from any quarter.
