Infantino denies having affair, paying off ex-lover while at UEFA
According to The Telegraph, which did not cite its sources, this employee received a “a six-figure sum” upon her departure –- at an unspecified time –- in addition to the payment of tuition fees for a business school amounting to around £45,000 ($60,700).
Infantino, who is standing for re-election next March, has been embroiled in a crisis since the announcement late last month of his controversial — and ultimately abandoned — plan to open up the World Cup to private investors.
When contacted by AFP, UEFA acknowledged that “a departure payment was made to the individual in question” at that time, “coupled with the payment of fees for an MBA course at a local business school”.
