Prime Minister Mark Carney has lost confidence in FIFA President Gianni Infantino after recent events.

Many people are calling for Infantino to resign after a plan to sell World Cup rights to private investors was stopped.

Carney said, "I don't have confidence in Mr. Infantino after what happened."

Infantino made a big mistake by not talking to top FIFA officials about his plan to create a $20 billion company.

The company would have included private investors like the Kushner family, who are connected to US President Donald Trump.

Carney said, "This is not how you run a business, especially something as big as football."

The plan, called FIFA Forward Enterprise, was opposed by many soccer federations around the world.

UEFA and other groups did not like the plan and said they would boycott the World Cup if it happened.

British Prime Minister Andy Burnham said Infantino is not the right person to lead FIFA.

Infantino tried to save his job by offering Morocco a chance to host the 2030 World Cup final.

FIFA said this claim is false and that a decision will be made later.

Top FIFA officials like Arsène Wenger and Mattias Grafström did not support Infantino's plan.

FIFA now says they support Infantino, but many people are still unhappy with him.

FIFA said mistakes were made and they will try to do better in the future.

A letter was sent to apologize for errors and promise to improve.

Infantino's close relationship with President Trump is also a concern for many people.

FIFA lifted a player's suspension after a call from Trump, which caused controversy.

The Belgian soccer team was surprised by this decision and appealed, but it was denied.

UEFA criticized FIFA for making a bad decision that could hurt the game.

Canada Soccer is reviewing the situation and will decide what to do next.

Infantino wants to be president of FIFA again, but many people do not want him to.

If Infantino leaves, Victor Montagliani from Canada might become the new president.

Carney said the decision will be made by FIFA, not by politicians.

Carney has a lot of respect for Montagliani and thinks he is a great person for the job.

Carney said Montagliani is an exceptional individual who loves football and has done a good job.
