Fifa President Gianni Infantino has formally proposed an independent external review of the global football governing body's governance framework. The initiative, communicated via a letter to the Fifa council and all 211 member association presidents, aims to address concerns and recommend improvements for how major strategic decisions are made.
This move comes in the wake of a now-abandoned investment plan that reportedly caused unease within the organization. Infantino expressed his full commitment to leading Fifa through this process, signaling a desire for enhanced transparency and accountability in the wake of past controversies.
