Infantino could face questions over Trump ties

FIFA president Gianni Infantino could face compulsory questioning over his ties to US President Donald Trump following the Democrats' success in the midterm elections, which gave them subpoena power on the House Judiciary Committee. Democrats launched a formal investigation on July 26, describing a 'sustained campaign' by FIFA and Infantino to curry favour with Trump, but characterized FIFA's cooperation as 'woefully inadequate' as of September 23. With their new majority, Democrats could now compel Infantino to submit documents and appear before the Committee, with criminal consequences for non-compliance.
