FIFA Denies Trump Talks Amid World Cup Sale

FIFA has denied that president Gianni Infantino held any talks with US President Donald Trump regarding the controversial plans to sell football World Cup to external investors.

FIFA has categorically denied that president Gianni Infantino held any conversations with US President Donald Trump or members of his administration in recent days. The football governing body dismissed media reports suggesting Infantino sought Trump's support for the controversial plans to sell World Cup rights to external investors, calling the claims 'pure fiction'.

The denial comes amid mounting pressure on Infantino, with UEFA threatening to boycott FIFA competitions and expressing strong distrust toward the president. Trump, who has remained relatively quiet about the football conflict, previously answered 'no' when asked if he had spoken with Infantino about the much-criticized plans. fish-roadgame.com
