European soccer officials eye Qatari sports executive to challenge Infantino

European soccer officials are reportedly exploring the possibility of backing a Qatari sports executive to challenge FIFA president Gianni Infantino. The move reflects growing dissatisfaction with FIFA’s leadership and how football is governed, with some officials seeking a change before the next major election cycle. By rallying behind an alternative candidate, critics hope to reshape FIFA’s agenda and push for reforms around tournament decisions, commercial rights, and governance standards. The Qatari figure’s willingness to run and the level of support across Europe remain unclear as talks continue behind the scenes.
