Jordan FA President, Prince Ali Al Hussein, has issued a scathing statement against FIFA President Gianni Infantino by openly making blackmail allegations against him.
Jordan made their first-ever World Cup appearance in 2026, but the country's joy has been shrouded in the FIFA controversies that have emerged in the aftermath of the tournament.
As national FAs are publicly withdrawing support from FIFA President Gianni Infantino after the failed FFE privatisation plan, Jordan's FA is making a much bigger allegation.
In a lengthy post on X, Prince Hussein pointed out the issues faced by Jordan fans with visas to attend the tournament, the severe taxes they need to pay in their host United States venue, and that they're yet to receive the payout from winning the FIFA Arab Cup in December 2025.
Hussein ended by revealing he was told that publicly supporting Infantino would remedy these issues over the last few months, stating that he considers that blackmail.
