England and Wales Stop Supporting FIFA Leader Gianni Infantino
Infantino's plan made many people angry, and the group that runs European football, UEFA, said they might not participate in FIFA events. Another group, CONCACAF, also criticized Infantino but did not say they would boycott.
The English Football Association and the Football Association of Wales have now said they do not support Infantino for the next term as FIFA president.
The Football Association of Wales said, 'We are taking back our support for Gianni Infantino to be FIFA president again.'

The recent problems with leadership and decision-making have led us to lose trust in Infantino. He did not put football's best interests first, which is not acceptable.
Wales was the first country to stop supporting Infantino, and now England is doing the same.
UEFA has been very critical of Infantino since he announced his plan, and they say they no longer trust him.
UEFA said, 'The current FIFA leaders have lost the trust of many football groups, not just UEFA.'
When Infantino became president in 2016, he promised to be transparent and use FIFA's money for football development.
Infantino said, 'FIFA's money belongs to the national associations, not the president.' He promised to use it for football, not other things.
He failed to keep these promises. The secret deal he tried to make was not transparent at all.
The president of the Asian Football Confederation, Sheikh Salman, is happy that FIFA stopped the plan to sell World Cup stakes.
He said, 'Any big decisions will be discussed with all groups in a transparent and respectful way.'
The future of football should be decided through open discussions and respect for the game's rules.
The UK Prime Minister, Andy Burnham, also criticized the plan and asked FIFA to review its leadership.
