Sources said on the 20th UEFA, the AFC and CONCACAF are discussing initiating a vote of no confidence in FIFA president Gianni Infantino to seek his removal. FIFA statutes allow the FIFA Council to convene an extraordinary congress at any time; if at least one-fifth of FIFA's 211 member associations submit a written request, the Council must call one.
