Fifa’s chief operating officer Kevin Lamour has launched a sharp attack on president Gianni Infantino, saying the organisation is being run like a one-man project. Lamour also claims that Fifa staff have been misled by a lack of transparency about the plans.

According to HBL, the criticism is aimed at how decisions are handled inside the organisation and how much information employees are given. The remarks put renewed attention on internal power structures at world football’s governing body.
