2026 World Cup: Gianni Infantino takes a jab at the English

FIFA President Gianni Infantino took a dig at the English during the World Economic Forum in Davos, just months ahead of the 2026 World Cup.

On the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Gianni Infantino sparked a strong reaction in England after making a joke about British supporters. The FIFA President referenced the 2022 World Cup in Qatar as the countdown to the 2026 tournament continues.

"For the first time in history, not a single Brit was arrested during a World Cup. Just imagine, that's truly special," said the FIFA President.
