Uefa, Concacaf and the Asian Football Confederation have begun preliminary discussions about the possibility of organising competitions among themselves if they boycott Fifa events.The European, North American and Asian confederations have accused Fifa president Gianni Infantino of abandoning his duty to the footballing world and losing its trust through deception as they step up their campaign for Infantino to go, hoping he will resign rather than seek a third full term in office.Gianni Infantino is facing calls to resign (PA Wire)Between them representing more than half of Fifas members, the trio have called for an independent review into Infantinos attempt to sell off a stake in the World Cup to private investors and, in an open letter, said the integrity of the game was at stake in footballs civil war.They said Infantino had failed to acknowledge his proposal was fundamentally wrong and a profound failure of judgment and said that, while Fifa is preparing a report into it, it cannot be trusted to conduct a review into its own actions. The letter was signed by Uefa president Aleksander Ceferin, his Concacaf counterpart Victor Montagliani and the AFCs Salman Bin Ibrahim Al Khalifa. They wrote: This is about something more fundamental: the integrity of the game, and the integrity of those elected to lead it. Leadership in football is not a possession. It is not about holding or demanding power to be held. It is a duty of service to the football family that entrusts it. Uefa president Aleksander Ceferin (left) and Fifa counterpart Gianni Infantino (PA)When trust is broken through deception, when an individual places himself above the collective that entrusted him with authority, that duty has been abandoned. Fifa's recent letter to its vice-presidents and 211 member associations acknowledges that mistakes were made in the process. It treats this as a failure of communication, when what football witnessed was a failure of judgment. A proposal advanced on a compressed timeline, without meaningful consultation, and pushed toward a deadline before member associations could properly review its terms is not the product of an oversight it is the product of a design intended to limit scrutiny. It did not acknowledge that the proposal itself was inherently wrong. There remains no recognition that attempting to sell an interest in the Fifa World Cup was a profound failure of judgment not just a procedural misstep.Fifa's own letter also confirms that only one elected official was present at the leadership meeting in Morocco. No Fifa council members or member associations were invited to participate. Only the management committee, composed of Fifa-employed senior staff, was present. This recent meeting, where a select number of members of the Fifa management committeenot the full committeewere summoned abroad, rather than leadership going to Zurich to address the heart of Fifa, its staff, only reinforces these concerns and represents a continuation of the very pattern of conduct that brought us to this moment.It is not the conduct of a custodian of the game, but of one who believes the game is answerable to him. There is silence where there should be accountability, distance where there should be openness.Football is the worlds greatest shared passion. It belongs to no individual and no institution.A number of football associations, including Argentina, Morocco and Mexico, have backed Infantino while the African Football Confederation has done so unanimously. In a statement on Saturday, Fifa said: It is increasingly evident that there is a concerted and ongoing effort by some to undermine Fifa and its president.

The Washington Commanders have completed two weeks of training camp. A lot happened in Week 2, as wide receiver Stefon Diggs finally signed with the Commanders after weeks of speculation. Diggs is more than thrilled to be "home."Washington saw the returns of three injured players last week, as edge rusher Dorance Armstrong, cornerback Trey Amos and punter Tress Way all returned to the practice field. Unfortunately, the Commanders lost perhaps their best player on Saturday, when left tackle Laremy Tunsil tore his triceps. Now, Tunsil is either out for the entire 2026 season or a significant portion of it. It was brutal news for Washington. Last week, we made our second 53-man roster projection before the Diggs and Tunsil news. Therefore, things will look a bit different. So, here are our latest projections after two weeks of training camp. Quarterback (2)Jayden DanielsMarcus MariotaA big change here. Where we've gone with three quarterbacks in our first two projections, we go with two here. That could be risky with Jayden Daniels missing 10 games last season, but rookie Athan Kaliakmanis should have no trouble making it to the practice squad. In that case, he'd still be Washington's No. 3 quarterback, allowing the Commanders to keep another player elsewhere. Running back (4)Jacory Croskey-MerrittRachaad WhiteKaytron AllenJeremy McNicholsNo changes here, and we don't think there will be any. All have flashed at some point in camp. We think the Commanders will keep four because McNichols offers value in multiple places, including on special teams. Wide receiver (7)Terry McLaurinStefon DiggsDyami BrownTreylon BurksLuke McCaffreyJaylin LaneAntonio WilliamsWe've been sticking with six, but after Diggs signed, we're going with seven. Remember, Washington can justify keeping McCaffrey and Lane active on game days because they return kicks and punts, respectively. McCaffrey is also having an impressive camp, showing a feistier side. This is a much deeper group than Washington has had in years. McLaurin and Diggs give the Commanders an outstanding starting duo, while the race for the No. 3 job likely comes down to Burks, McCaffrey and Williams. Tight end (4)Chig OkonkwoJohn BatesBen SinnottColson YankoffNo changes here. The Commanders like Lawrence Cager, but there's no way they can keep five tight ends. Bates remains out, but he'll be fine for Week 1. As things currently stand, all four players should have a role in the regular season. Yankoff could go from special teams standout to offensive contributor. He's having a really nice camp. Offensive line (9)Josh Conerly Jr.Sam CosmiNick AllegrettiChris PaulBrandon ColemanMatt GulbinAndrew WylieTrent ScottDaniel BrunskillIt was difficult to leave Laremy Tunsil's name off here, but he's more than likely lost for the season. That means Brandon Coleman is the left tackle. The likely starting lineup now looks like this: Coleman (LT), Paul (LG), Allegretti (C), Cosmi (RG), Conerly (RT). Wylie is Washington's top reserve, with Scott right behind him. There will be a battle for the final spot or two. With all of the uncertainty, we believe the Commanders will keep nine offensive linemen. The rookie Gulbin likely gets one spot, as he can play center or guard. With Scott and Wylie able to play tackle and guard, the final spot should go to someone who can play center, as it would be too risky to go into the season with Gulbin as the only backup center. So, for now, we will go with the recently signed Daniel Brunskill due to his experience. Defensive line (4)Daron PayneTim SettleJavon KinlawJohnny NewtonNo changes here. These four are locks, barring a surprising trade. The defensive line has looked good early in camp. Edge (5)Odafe OwehKLavon ChaissonDorance ArmstrongCharles OmenihuJoshua JosephsNo changes here. Oweh and Chaisson have been off to an impressive start in training camp. So has the rookie Josephs. Armstrong was activated last week, but is still working his way back to full participation. Linebacker (5)Frankie LuvuSonny StylesLeo ChenalJordan MageeKain MedranoSame group as last week. Washington will find a way to keep Medrano. He's young and fast, and still developing as a linebacker. He will edge Ale Kaho for that final spot. He still has a ways to go at linebacker, but is impressive on special teams. Cornerback (5)Mike SainristilTrey AmosAmik RobertsonRasul DouglasFabian MoreauThe most shocking news last week came when veteran cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon told the team he was retiring after Washington's first padded practice. Witherspoon was on track to make the 53 as a reserve cornerback. The Commanders immediately signed their former third-round pick, Fabian Moreau, to replace him. There are no other younger corners in camp standing out, so we think Moreau is on track to get that final corner spot. It's also possible that Washington keeps four, but unlikely. Safety (5)Quan MartinNick CrossWill HarrisJeremy ReavesTyler OwensJeremy Reaves is having an impressive camp. The former All-Pro special teamer could be Washington's other starting safety, opposite Nick Cross. What does this mean for Quan Martin? Could Martin be left off the 53? I wouldn't be shocked. It's hard to leave Percy Butler off here, because he's outstanding on special teams. Ultimately, I believe the Commanders will keep five safeties, with the fifth safety coming down to Martin a former second-round pick and Butler. Today, we lean Martin, but that could change. Special teams (3)K Drew StevensP Tress WayLS Tyler OttLast week, we selected Jake Moody as the player to win Washington's kicking job. However, things have changed over the past week, with Stevens jumping ahead in this competition. Moody hasn't been bad, but Stevens has just been better.
