Infantino was elaborating on his weekend proposals to the Confederation of African Football (Caf) for a drastic overhaul of the African game when he met with the International Sports Press Association (AIPS) in Budapest. In Rabat at the weekend he outlined a plan centred around improved competitions for Africa, infrastructure investment and professionalisation of refereeing. But the Fifa president did not explain how he arrived at the $200m figure or how such a club competition would work - or be any different from the African Champions League. Infantino said Fifa was in position now to help guarantee infrastructure projects in Africa. "This is our proposal but we have to see whether African football accepts it."
