Gianni Infantino and FIFA
30 August 2026
Two reports have placed Gianni Infantino under fresh scrutiny, detailing a previously unpublished 2016 FIFA ethics investigation and a current £2.3 million communications contract whose stated objectives include protecting the image of FIFA and its president.
The historical investigation examined private-jet travel, expenses and other conduct before clearing Infantino of all seven charges. Separately, FIFA’s 22-month Ten Toes Media agreement covers social media, content production, monitoring and influencer work through December 2026.
