New FIFA boss 'dismayed' over being linked to leaked documents
New FIFA president Gianni Infantino has defended his reputation after reports that he signed a Champions League broadcasting contract in 2006 with an offshore registered marketing agency implicated in the bribery scandal that rocked world soccer's governing body last year.
The contract, which Infantino co-signed as UEFA's then legal director, was leaked from the database of a Panama-based law firm, Mossack Fonseca, the British daily The Guardian and the BBC reported on Tuesday.
