FIFA: Infantino plans to increase grants by approximately 5.77 billion FCFA to 211 federations

FIFA President Gianni Infantino plans to increase funding to its 211 member associations, potentially reaching at least 10 million dollars per federation for the 2027-2030 cycle. He requested a financial assessment before the FIFA Council review scheduled for October 15 in Zurich. This proposal follows a suggestion by UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin and Concacaf President Victor Montagliani for a total redistribution of about 2.1 billion dollars, funded from FIFA reserves estimated at 6 billion dollars. Infantino did not confirm a specific amount but supports responsible additional funding in accordance with governance procedures.
