FIFA President Gianni Infantino is currently embroiled in a significant legal crisis that threatens his decade-long tenure.
國際足總(FIFA)主席詹尼·因凡蒂諾(Gianni Infantino)目前捲入了一場嚴重的法律危機，這場危機正威脅著他長達十年的任期。
As of late August 2026, pressure for his resignation has intensified following allegations of criminal mismanagement.
截至2026年8月下旬，在有關刑事管理不善的指控下，要求他辭職的壓力日益增加。
At the heart of the controversy is a now-abandoned plan, known as the 'World Cup Sell-Off,' which proposed selling a 20% stake in World Cup commercial rights to private investors for $4.2 billion.
這場爭議的核心是一項現已廢棄、被稱為「世界盃拋售」(World Cup Sell-Off)的計畫，該計畫提議以42億美元的價格將世界盃20%的商業權益股權出售給私人投資者。
Critics, including UEFA, labeled this valuation as absurdly low and accused Infantino of bypassing standard governance procedures to favor a small group of associates.
包括歐洲足總(UEFA)在內的批評者認為此估值低得荒謬，並指控因凡蒂諾繞過標準治理程序，以偏袒一小部分同夥。
Consequently, UEFA is pursuing legal action in U.S. courts to secure evidence for a planned criminal complaint in Switzerland.
因此，歐洲足總正在美國法院採取法律行動，以獲取證據，準備在瑞士提起刑事訴訟。
These developments have led major football governing bodies, such as UEFA, CONCACAF, and the AFC, to demand his resignation.
這些發展已導致歐洲足總、中北美洲及加勒比海足球協會(CONCACAF)以及亞洲足球聯盟(AFC)等主要足球管理機構要求他下台。
The current situation draws striking parallels to the 2015 scandal that ousted former President Sepp Blatter.
目前的情況與2015年導致前主席賽普·布萊特(Sepp Blatter)下台的醜聞有驚人的相似之處。
While Infantino previously navigated legal scrutiny in 2020, this new wave of allegations—combined with claims of political interference in the 2026 World Cup—presents an unprecedented threat to his plan to seek a third term in the upcoming March election.
儘管因凡蒂諾先前曾在2020年度過法律審查，但這波新的指控，加上有關2026年世界盃政治干預的說法，對他計畫在即將到來的3月選舉中尋求連任構成了前所未有的威脅。
