TOKYO: Asian Football Confederation President Sheikh Salman bin Ibrahim Al Khalifa said on Friday the governing body would support Gianni Infantino's bid to be re-elected FIFA President.
"I think that we reaffirm our full commitment, of course, to supporting you and your leadership as you seek a new mandate as FIFA President," Sheikh Salman said in his opening remarks at the AFC's extraordinary congress in Tokyo where Infantino was present.
