Kurt Petersen, co-president of Unite Here Local 11, outlined a slew of union demands in a letter addressed to FIFA president Gianni Infantino and Stan Kroenke, calling for fair working practices and a public statement against ICE's presence at the games.

Fifa has opened disciplinary proceedings today against the Spanish FA for the incidents in the friendly against Egypt. Spanish police launched an investigation into the chants last week.

FIFA has opened disciplinary proceedings against the RFEF for the incidents in the friendly against Egypt, with fines and stadium closures among the potential penalties.

The Palestinian Football Association called for the Israeli Football Association to receive a ban after a FIFA report found multiple breaches of its anti-discrimination obligations.

FIFA touts a commitment to staying 'neutral in matters of politics' and claims that 'discrimination of any kind...is strictly prohibited and punishable,' but under the rule of FIFA President Gianni Infantino, neutrality means the powerful win.

Have a look at a photograph taken this past December in the Kennedy Center. There is Donald Trump, grinning from ear to ear, with a flashy gold medal around his neck. In front of him is a large, phallic gold (or perhaps gilded) trophy depicting hands holding up the globe (or perhaps a soccer ball). It was Trump's very own " FIFA Peace Prize."

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) submitted a complaint to Fifa in December, arguing that Leopards players such as Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Axel Tuanzebe - both former England youth internationals - were ineligible because Congolese law does not allow dual citizenship. While a section of the Super Eagles fanbase is hoping the side could secure a lifeline, others are questioning the fairness of a potential qualification by appeal.

A record 20.7m ($28.6m) was spent globally on transfers in the women's professional game in 2025 - an increase of 83.6% from 2024 - according to a report published by Fifa. There was an increase in the total number of cross-border transfers, with 2,440 completed in 2025, up 6.3% on the previous year. But the report does not take into account deals done between teams in the same league, therefore, the actual total spend would be much higher.
