德甲、英超、西甲和意甲的领导人于9月25日发表公开信，要求国际足联进行根本性的权力制衡改革。1这些顶级联赛的负责人指责FIFA主席因凡蒂诺权力过度集中，表示"足球长期以来的基础在近年来因一个根本性治理问题而受到威胁，即FIFA主席主动推行了剥削性理念而非防范这些理念"。1
公开信的发表背景与多项争议决策相关。因凡蒂诺推行的私人投资计划FIFA Forward Enterprise在7月宣布后遭到UEFA、CONCACAF和亚足联的强烈反对，随后被撤销。1此外，美国前锋巴洛贡的禁赛决定也引发关注——其单场禁赛被暂停以参加7月对阵比利时的世界杯16强比赛，期间美国总统特朗普曾亲自致电因凡蒂诺要求"复审"禁赛。1四大联赛强调"仅进行表面层面的流程改变还不够——根本性的治理改革是必要的"。1
与此同时，UEFA正在为2027年3月18日的FIFA主席选举寻找合适的候选人挑战因凡蒂诺。1候选人注册截止日期为2026年11月18日。1因凡蒂诺计划在10月15日的FIFA理事会会议上讨论其相关提案。1
Leaders of Europe's four most prominent football leagues issued an open letter on September 25 demanding fundamental governance overhaul at FIFA, citing excessive concentration of power in the hands of President Gianni Infantino 1. The signatories—representing the Bundesliga, Premier League, La Liga, and Serie A—argued that "football's longstanding foundations have, in recent years, been threatened by a fundamental governance problem, whereby FIFA's president has actively promoted exploitative ideas rather than safeguarding against them" 1. The letter emphasized that superficial procedural adjustments would be insufficient, insisting instead that "fundamental governance reform is essential" 1.
The call for reform comes amid escalating tensions over several recent FIFA decisions. The controversial FIFA Forward Enterprise, a private investment scheme unveiled by Infantino in late July, faced swift opposition from UEFA, CONCACAF, and the Asian Football Confederation, ultimately leading to its withdrawal 1. The leagues also referenced the controversial suspension of American forward Folarin Balogun, whose single-match ban was suspended to allow his participation in a World Cup round-of-16 match against Belgium in July—a decision that drew intervention from U.S. President Donald Trump, who personally telephoned Infantino requesting a "review" of the suspension 1.
UEFA is actively seeking credible candidates to challenge Infantino in the FIFA presidential election scheduled for March 18, 2027, with nominations closing on November 18, 2026 1. Infantino is expected to present his proposals at an FIFA Council meeting on October 15 1.
