FIFA President Gianni Infantino is set to travel to Japan as part of his re-election campaign, aiming to court the support of Asian football federations. This move follows a recent meeting in Zurich, Switzerland, where Infantino apologized to the 37-member FIFA ruling council. During the session, he acknowledged making mistakes regarding a previously proposed $4.2 billion plan to sell World Cup commercial rights, a project that has since been abandoned.
