FIFA paid millions in taxes for Infantino after his move to Miami
The under-fire president received undisclosed tax benefits as FIFA covered his full U.S. tax bill.
What to know
- FIFA covered 100% of Infantino's U.S. income taxes after his relocation from Switzerland to Miami, an arrangement never publicly disclosed despite FIFA's stated commitment to transparency on executive compensation.
- The decision was made by FIFA's governing body with minimal discussion after a Swiss accountant proposed offsetting Infantino's increased tax burden through 2026.
- The arrangement contradicts FIFA's public promises around executive pay transparency and raises fresh questions about governance under Infantino's leadership.
