Arsene Wenger decides not to run for FIFA President
Summarised by MatchPal
Wenger has withdrawn from the FIFA presidential race after pressure from UEFA, leaving Infantino without a major challenger.
Arsene Wenger has decided not to run for FIFA President following weeks of lobbying by UEFA. He informed senior UEFA executives earlier this week. The decision comes with just four days remaining for Europe's governing body to back an alternative candidate. Wenger's withdrawal is a significant boost for incumbent Gianni Infantino, who faced a potential challenge from the former Arsenal manager.
