FIFA insists Mexico City audio files exist amid Infantino speculation

Audio files from a FIFA meeting in Mexico City were not destroyed, world football's governing body has insisted.

FIFA has insisted that audio files from a meeting in Mexico City do exist amid allegations that president Gianni Infantino asked for them to be deleted.

A report published by Welt am Sonntag on Thursday claimed that Infantino is facing a provisional 90-day suspension from FIFA's Ethics Committee, with the German media outlet claiming to have seen an internal email chain at world football's governing body suggesting he had ordered recordings of a council meeting held last month to be destroyed.
