Jordan Football Association President Ali bin Hussein launched a public attack on FIFA President Gianni Infantino on Tuesday, accusing him of "blackmail" and claiming FIFA offered to help solve the kingdom's problems in exchange ​for his endorsement, Reuters reported. 

Bin Hussein alleged that FIFA verbally communicated during the World Cup that endorsing Infantino "would go a long way to helping our FA out" after months of the world soccer governing body refusing assistance on various matters.
