According to Spanish radio reporter Ladislau Monino , despite growing calls from Europe for Infantino to resign as FIFA president, the threshold of 106 votes makes impeachment impossible.

Ladislau Monino stated that even within UEFA, opposition to Infantino is increasing, making it arithmetically nearly impossible to remove him from the FIFA presidency.
Monino previously published an article in the Spanish newspaper El País entitled "The Difficult Task of Getting Rid of Infantino," in which he stated, "Currently, the only way to remove this Swiss-Italian president from the helm of FIFA is for him to resign and not seek a fourth term in the election to be held on March 18, 2027." He reiterated this view while appearing on the program "El Larguero" with Álvaro Benito.
Monino explained that the European side's opposition to Infantino was clear, and the public was also on the opposite side of him because of a series of controversial events before and after the World Cup, but he emphasized that "the public will not vote."
He pointed out that although Infantino lost the support of UEFA and CONCACAF, which was a big blow to him, the opposition was not thorough because there were still some associations within CONCACAF that supported the current president, which also led to inconsistent votes.
The guest revealed that the biggest numerical obstacle to stopping Infantino is: "To impeach him and convene a special congress, 106 votes are needed." Opponents have not yet reached that threshold.
Monino stated that UEFA and its president Ceferin "very much want to oust him from the position of FIFA president," but he also pointed out that if there were enough votes, UEFA would have taken action long ago and put forward a candidate who could defeat him at the special congress, provided that the special congress is actually held.
He concluded by mentioning that attention is now focused on the UEFA Congress early next year, where a presidential election will be held, and Ceferin is highly likely to be re-elected; attention will also be drawn to the FIFA Congress in Rabat, Morocco. There are concerns that this controversy will impact the media landscape leading up to the next World Cup.
