Infantino Dodges Questions, Makes Bald Joke

FIFA President Gianni Infantino avoided answering critical questions from a Sky News reporter in the Dominican Republic, instead joking about their shared baldness.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino was confronted by a Sky News reporter at a youth football event in the Dominican Republic who asked about his trust in football and why he refuses to step down. Instead of answering, Infantino commented on the reporter's "nice hair" - a joke referencing their baldness - before closing the car door and leaving.

The incident occurs amid controversy over FIFA's failed plans to involve private investors in World Cups and growing calls from national and regional federations for Infantino's resignation. chincha.pl
