One prediction market prices this story:

  • Yes — the market puts it at 14%, with $26 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Gianni Infantino ceases to be President of FIFA in 2026. It resolves to No if he remains in that role throughout the year. Readers often mistake the linked news story about a governance review for an actual departure, but only his actual exit from the presidency counts.

Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
