The BBC questioned Fifa president Gianni Infantino about whether he retains the backing of South American football body Conmebol and whether he will resign. The questions follow criticism of his abandoned proposal to sell private stakes in the World Cup, which has prompted multiple calls for him to step down.

Infantino did not answer the BBC’s questions while attending the inauguration of Colombia’s new president, Abelardo de la Espriella. BBC South America correspondent Ione Wells later again asked whether he would resign, but the article does not report a response.
