FIFA No.2 Urges Calm as Infantino’s FFE Plan Is Scrapped

FIFA secretary-general Mattias Grafström told staff that turbulent moments eventually pass as Infantino’s failed Forward Enterprise plan is permanently abandoned, calling the episode a sad but resolvable setback while preserving the federation’s mission. The development comes amid broader criticism of Infantino’s leadership from UEFA and other bodies, and after Wenger said he learned of the plan through the media; pressure has grown as England and Wales FAs move to withdraw support for Infantino’s re‑election.
