Infantino apologises to FIFA leaders over failed stake sale scheme

Original: Gianni Infantino apologises to FIFA leaders over failed stake sale scheme but avoids key topics https://www. nytimes.com

FIFA president Gianni Infantino has apologised to FIFA Council members over a failed stake sale scheme, but did not explain how or why the plan was devised, according to The Athletic. The 56-year-old avoided key questions surrounding the collapse of the deal, leaving council members without a full account of the decision-making behind it. The apology stops short of the transparency critics are demanding.

Why now: Fresh reporting on Infantino's apology and his refusal to answer central questions about the failed scheme.
