Infantino reiterated his defence of World Cup 2026 ticket prices, which the FSA previously described as “scandalous”.
Group stage tickets are up to three times the price of those for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, while the cheapest ticket for the final in New Jersey is £3,119.
Fifa introduced a small number of “more affordable” $60 (£45) tickets for all 104 matches at the 2026 World Cup following criticism of its pricing structure.
Speaking in Davos, Infantino acknowledged “tickets are not cheap” and that he and Fifa were “hammered” as a result, adding “the main critics were from Germany and England, of course”.
However, he defended the prices by again pointing to the demand for tickets.
He said: “Now, number one in ticket requests is the US. Number two, Germany, number three, England, because everyone wants to come and to participate.”
Infantino added “every match will be sold out”, though Fifa has not revealed how demand for tickets is broken down across the 104 matches and price categories.
