FIFA President Gianni Infantino Congratulates Donald Trump on Presidential Victory
In a social media post, Gianni Infantino, the president of FIFA, expressed his congratulations to Donald Trump on his successful bid to become the next President of the United States. The post featured pictures of Infantino and Trump together, celebrating Trump’s return to the White House.
Infantino and Trump enjoyed a warm relationship during Trump’s first term in office, which was marked by the USA’s successful bid to host the 2026 FIFA World Cup. This achievement was a significant milestone for both Infantino and Trump, and it strengthened their bond.
However, Trump’s presidency was previously cut short when he lost the 2020 presidential election to Joe Biden.
In a stunning turn of events, Trump made a comeback less than two years before the World Cup, defeating Democratic candidate Kamala Harris with 267 electoral votes, or 51.1% of the total. Trump hailed his victory as an “unprecedented and powerful mandate” from the American people.
In response to Trump’s win, Infantino wrote a congratulatory message, expressing his enthusiasm for the upcoming FIFA World Cup and FIFA Club World Cup events to be held in the United States. The message was accompanied by a popular FIFA slogan: “Football Unites the World!”
