CAF president, Motsepe explains how Infantino can be removed from FIFA

The President of the Confederation of African Football, CAF, Patrice Motsepe, has warned that Gianni Infantino can only be removed through election.

CAF is one of the federations in support of Infantino continuing as FIFA boss.

UEFA, AFC and CONCACAF have accused the 56-year-old of “deception” following his failed plot to sell off stakes in the World Cup to investors.

They have demanded for his resignation, insisting that he should not stand for re-election in March next year.

But Motsepe, who is a FIFA vice president, has insisted that Infantino can only be taken out through due process.

“If anybody has got any problem against anybody, whether it’s Gianni, whether it is anybody else, follow the process, follow the FIFA process, simple as that,” Motsepe told Sky News.

“If you want to take him out, go for elections; let the 211 member associations decide.

“You’ve got to be very careful. There are elections taking place next year. Shouldn’t we allow that process to continue?”
