FIFA Crisis Deepens After Lamour Exit | Belfast News

About this episode

FIFA’s sudden firing of COO Kevin Lamour—just weeks after he accused President Infantino of misleading the administration over a controversial investor deal—has ignited a firestorm across global football. UEFA’s Laura McAllister condemned the move as a betrayal of integrity, calling Lamour a principled voice for sport over profit. With UEFA, AFC, and CONCACAF now accusing Infantino of deception in an open letter—and some member associations pulling support for his re-election—the crisis has shattered trust. Despite FIFA’s board backing Infantino, no one’s been named to review the flawed investor plan, leaving the scandal unresolved and exposing a deep rift in world football’s leadership.
