FIFA President Gianni Infantino Re-Elected For Second Term





Gianni Infantino has been re-elected as FIFA president.





He was re-elected for a second term, at the Congress of world football’s governing body in Paris on Wednesday.





Infantino’s second term will run until 2023.





FIFA’s 211 member federation retained him without a vote, because he was the only candidate.





Infantino, a 49-year-old Swiss lawyer, was first elected in February 2016 to complete the term of Sepp Blatter.





Blatter was forced out of office following corruption investigations, and is now serving a six-year ban for financial misconduct.
