Gianni Infantino was reelected as FIFA president during the 73rd Congress in Kigali, Rwanda.
Infantino ran unopposed.
Infantino confirmed FIFA\'s income hit record levels in the last cycle from 2019-22, but promised to substantially raise this again on the back of expanded men\'s and women\'s World Cup tournaments and the introduction of a 32-team Club World Cup.
\"Revenues rose to a record $7.5 billion [in 2022] in a period that was hit by COVID-19. When I arrived, FIFA reserves stood at around $1bn, today they are at almost $4bn,\" Infantino said.
