Related Topics: FIFA, Transparency International

The majority of football fans from across the world believe that corruption remains the No. 1 problem within FIFA and that it is still a discredited organisation despite president Gianni Infantino's major reforms.

With Infantino marking one year in office on Feb. 26, a survey by Transparency International of over 25,000 fans from 50 countries showed that he still has a long way to go to win them over. More than half (53 percent) said that they did not have any confidence in world football's governing body with only 26 percent claiming that he had restored trust in FIFA.
