Jordan FA President Accuses FIFA of Blackmail Over World Cup Funds

The Jordan Football Association president has accused FIFA of blackmail, alleging the governing body withheld World Cup money in exchange for Jordan's support for Gianni Infantino to remain as FIFA president. The accusation represents a serious public challenge to FIFA's leadership from a member association. A direct blackmail allegation against FIFA's leadership by a member association is a significant governance crisis for the sport's global governing body.
