A FIFA vice president asked Gianni Infantino to avoid attending a youth soccer event. Despite this, Infantino made a public appearance, meeting with officials from the Dominican Republic. He shared photos of these meetings on social media.

The event was part of a Caribbean Football Union tournament. The request to stay away was made to avoid being a distraction. Further details about the situation are available.

Infantino's appearance comes during a time of controversy surrounding his plan to sell World Cup profits to private investors.
