FIFA confirmed this Sunday, through an official statement, that Gianni Infantino is once again a candidate for the presidency of the organization. This information comes at a time when the supreme leader of world football is seeking a new mandate at the helm of the international federation.
Gianni Infantino, who already holds the position of FIFA president, has thus decided to run again to continue leading the entity that governs international football. The statement issued by FIFA served as official confirmation of this political intention on the part of the incumbent president.
Infantino's candidacy comes in a context of continuity of his leadership, which began when he was chosen to succeed Joseph Blatter at the helm of the federation. This new candidacy therefore represents the Swiss president's intention to remain in office for another cycle.
