According to the British newspaper The Guardian, Israel has withdrawn its support for FIFA President Gianni Infantino's re-election.

Israel has become the latest country to withdraw its support for Gianni Infantino's re-election due to strong criticism of his controversial plan to sell some of the World Cup-related rights to private investors.

The Guardian reports that several countries have withdrawn their support for Gianni Infantino's re-election, and Kevin Lamour, FIFA's Chief Operating Officer for Global Football, was dismissed for criticizing the plan. The report states that Israel's withdrawal of support was formally communicated via a letter signed by Israel Football Association President Moshe Zoares.
