A statement accuses Infantino of exploiting his influence to gain Trump's support.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino faces a new ethical lawsuit accusing him of abusing his power and breaching political neutrality due to his relationship with former U.S. President Donald Trump.

FIFA decided to suspend Balogun's red card, allowing him to participate in the next match of the World Cup after Trump intervened with a phone call to Infantino.

The complaint states: 'The recently submitted supplementary complaint includes more serious allegations, collectively indicating a pattern of misconduct and violations at the leadership level of football.'

Infantino is currently facing severe criticism over plans to sell shares in FIFA tournaments, such as the World Cup, to private investors, which were later canceled.

In the biggest crisis he has faced since taking office in 2016, UEFA has threatened to boycott all FIFA events and is now preparing to file a lawsuit regarding the investors' plans, suspecting breaches of their fiduciary duties. However, Infantino has confirmed his candidacy for re-election in the upcoming FIFA presidential elections in March.

The human rights organization 'Fair Square' has filed a complaint with FIFA's Ethics Committee against Infantino.

The complaint accuses the FIFA president of violating the FIFA Code of Ethics, with all incidents related to U.S. President Donald Trump, according to the document.

The complaint states: 'These incidents collectively provide conclusive evidence that the FIFA president, in his efforts to win the favor of the U.S. president, has abused his power, violated his duty of political neutrality, and breached his duty of loyalty, at the very least.'

The organization added in its complaint that 'the evidence suggesting his attempts to gain personal benefits from this behavior underscores the seriousness of these allegations.'

Four out of eight incidents were included in the complaint submitted by Fair Square last December after the new FIFA Peace Prize was awarded to Trump, which faced severe criticism.

According to Fair Square, the current complaint includes details regarding Infantino's role in the red card scandal involving U.S. striker Folarin Balogun during the recent World Cup held in the United States, Mexico, and Canada earlier this year, along with the failure of a controversial investment deal.

FIFA decided to suspend Balogun's red card, allowing him to participate in the next match of the World Cup after Trump intervened with a phone call to Infantino.
