A sign of FIFA is seen at the football's World governing body headquarters on December 17, 2015 in Zurich. President Gianni Infantino held emergency talks with other FIFA directors in Morocco on August 5, 2026, a source told AFP, amid a wave of criticism over his now shelved plan to open the World Cup to private investment.
The Norwegian Football Association (NFF) has made two parallel filings with two FIFA committees in relation to three recent issues that have caused significant controversy in the global football community, it said on Tuesday.
The Norwegians have made the filings with FIFA's committees on ethics and governance, according to a document seen by Reuters.
A FIFA spokesperson told Reuters that FIFA President Gianni Infantino had addressed the concerns expressed in the NFF complaints in a letter to member associations in September, in which the 56-year-old administrator said he would be open to an independent review of decision-making in soccer's global ruling body.
"The first filing is a complaint to the FIFA Ethics Committee. It asks the Ethics Committee to examine the conduct of FIFA President Gianni Infantino and any other individuals identified through the investigation for potential breaches of FIFA’s Code of Ethics," the NFF said in a statement.
"The second filing is a referral to FIFA’s Governance, Audit and Compliance Committee (“GACC”). It asks whether FIFA ’ s governance, financial oversight, internal controls and decision-making processes have worked as intended."
"NFF has for several years raised questions about governance, transparency and separation of powers within FIFA. These filings are a natural continuation of NFFs commitment to the governance of international football," the statement said.
"The purpose is to raise these issues formally with the appropriate bodies, to have them examined, relevant evidence obtained and accountability for the conclusions reached."
Item six of the agenda is a governance and financial review which will specifically address the FFE proposal, as well as disciplinary procedures and the organisation's governance framework.
