The founder of Football Leaks, Rui Pinto, has accused FIFA president Gianni Infantino of helping Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain avoid a serious investigation into alleged financial breaches.
Pinto claims Infantino knew about the clubs’ violations in 2014, when he was UEFA general secretary, but obstructed investigators’ work to prevent either club from being excluded from the Champions League.
An independent commission recently found Manchester City guilty of breaching Premier League financial rules over a period of nine seasons.
Information from Football Leaks, published by Pinto in 2018, was among the sources used in the investigation into Manchester City.
