FIFA pay panel meets to set President Infantino’s salary

    

FIFA president, Gianni Infantino is waiting to be paid while FIFA’s compensation commission decides on an appropriate salary for top officials.

But Infantino says that he will make less than the speculated two million dollars a year, which is well below the salary of his  predecessor, Sepp Blatter.

Blatter, who was mired in scandal before being banned from FIFA, made 3.6 million dollars in 2015.

Infantino described past dealings with FIFA`s compensation committee as “insulting” and “completely arbitrary.”

Infantino said his pay could be finalised when the compensation committee meets again.
