With the election of the new President of FIFA, Gianni Infantino, aged 46, one must hope that he will ensure that the "Rotten Old FIFA" cannot make a comeback when the new rules of the Statutes are tested and finally adopted.
Should not any prior serving FIFA executive be prevented from being re-elected or from serving in the future ? Should such rules not also be applicable in the Geographic Regions of FIFA ?
There is a well known saying, "One old rotten apple in the basket can infect all the other apples !"
Their experience dating from the past, of what "could be done, what is possible", is not necessary, essential or desireable ! All that is really required, for a few years, are professionals from the Business World, including some with Marketing or Legal Experience.
When FIFA acts and appears to be "clean", Sponsors will flock back ! President Infantino must be firm, even stubborn, during the coming months. He will need friends, but not those from the FIFA past !
