CCTV9英语新闻：Infantino seeks backing for FIFA reforms

FIFA prepares for its annual congress, which is slated for later this week in Mexico City. Plenty will be on the agenda for new President Gianni Infantino, who will seek more support for reforms to the scandal-rocked body. The governing body will have to give new details of the cost of the scandals.

 

Infantino and top leaders will start the meeting Monday in this hotel, among the myriad of issues to discuss will be Michel Platini's six-year ban. The UEFA chief is appealing that punishment with the court of arbitration of sport.

 

Also on the agenda in the Mexican capital will be reforming the world governing body. New initiatives came into force April 27, 60 days after the last presidential election, that saw Infantino win the seat for football's top job.
