The six Nordic football federations have lost faith in the FIFA president and are concerned about the governance and decision-making processes within the organisation at the highest level. They have supported calls for an independent inquiry into the contentious proposal to sell a stake in events such as the World Cup to private investors. The federations have called on FIFA to undertake a thorough and independent examination of its governance framework. They want to determine whether it ensures independence, checks and balances, transparency, and accountability, as intended by the FIFA reform programme adopted in 2016. The Nordic federations have also backed calls for Infantino's resignation, launched by three major regional confederations. The Danish Football Association has pledged to find a credible alternative to Infantino for the election due next year. The Nordic federations have united with UEFA, which has already called for Infantino's resignation. Major regional football bodies have also mentioned the possibility of a vote of no confidence against the FIFA president. The situation is now tense between FIFA and the Nordic federations. The next steps will be crucial in determining the future of FIFA and its president.
