Well, isn’t this interesting …
FIFA, the global governing body over the sport of soccer, has strengthened their connection to President Donald Trump after opening an office in Trump Tower in New York City.
The decision from FIFA comes a year before the 2026 World Cup (men’s), which takes place throughout North America. It should be noted that FIFA also opened a Miami office in 2024.(RELATED: Trump Keeps It Real About Commanders’ Horrible Name Change From Redskins)
Gianni Infantino, the head of FIFA, issued a thank you Tuesday to Trump, branding the president as “a big fan of soccer.” Infantino also thanked Eric Trump, the son of the president, for both he and his father’s “big support.”
Infantino has taken several visits in 2025 to the White House and Trump’s Mar-a-Lago in Florida, doing so to boost up a relationship with Trump that will lead to success for the 2026 World Cup.
Say what you want about Gianni Infantino, but he’s been making big moves as of late. From entertaining the suggestion of Drake potentially performing at the World Cup to meeting with President Trump to ensure the best product, the dude has been on point as of late.
It’s a nice change from the typical corruption we see from FIFA.
