Nigel Farage just took a question from a 'journalist' at his press conference, who turned out to be his former chief adviser Raheem Kassam, who asks him why the media are being so unfair to him

It's kind of impressive than Infantino has managed to find a form of corruption so blatant and extreme that sports administrators are willing to draw a line despite the offer of massive bribes.

Corrupt and rotten to the core. Nations need to come together and break away from FIFA. Genuinely think it’s the only thing that can actually damage and embarrass him. For the good of the game, national federations must fight back against Infantino now.

Fifa president Gianni Infantino is planning to sell stakes in the World Cup to private investors under a scheme that could potentially earn him tens of millions of pounds. Investor discussions have been held with figures close to the Trump administration.
