A women’s sports titan is making headlines, as UEFA reportedly approached multi-team owner Michele Kang about running against current FIFA president Giannai Infantino in the March 2027 election.
Kang joins Arsenal legend Arsène Wenger and Norwegian FA head Lise Klaveness as reported challengers, as embattled incumbent Infantino seeks a fourth term.
The US billionaire controls a women’s soccer empire that includes the NWSL’s Washington Spirit, WSL’s London City Lionesses, and France’s OL Lyonnes, among other interests.
Candidates backed by five FIFA member associations have until November 18th to launch campaigns, though only former Tottenham Hotspur defender Ramon Vega has publicly declared so far.
