Former FIFA vice president Prince Ali bin Al Hussein was the latest football figure to criticise the leadership of Gianni Infantino on Tuesday, whose re-election is becoming increasingly uncertain.

Prince Ali, the third son of King Hussein of Jordan, said the Jordanian federation he leads still has not been paid money due for reaching the final of the FIFA Arab Cup played last December in Qatar.

In a social media post, Prince Ali said that during the World Cup — where Jordan made its debut in June — he was told if he endorsed FIFA President Gianni Infantino “it would go a long way to helping our FA out.”
