PARIS, August 27. /TASS/. The Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) will not support FIFA President Gianni Infantino in the presidential election of the world’s governing football body should he run for re-election, UEFA said in a statement on Thursday.

The FIFA presidential election will take place in March 2027 in Rabat.

"Should the current FIFA President nevertheless seek another mandate, UEFA will join forces with its partner confederations to ensure that Member Associations are offered a credible alternative - one committed to integrity, accountability, development and genuine institutional change," the statement reads.
