FIFA President Gianni Infantino met with special prosecutors in Switzerland as part of their criminal investigation into his undisclosed meetings with the country's attorney general during a wider probe of football officials.
Criminal proceedings against Infantino were recommended in 2020 by a previous special prosecutor, who was later removed from the case by a Swiss federal court, for possible incitements to commit abuse of public office and breach of official secrecy.
The case potentially implicating Infantino is now moving forward in his home country, weeks after he oversaw the World Cup in Qatar and about two months before he is due to be re-elected unopposed by FIFA member federations.
