FIFA chief Gianni Infantino insisted Wednesday he would never be disrespectful to Pele as he came under fire over a photo call at the Brazilian legend’s wake.
Infantino took a selfie with some of Pele’s old teammates on Monday right beside the open coffin of the three-time World Cup winner.
The Swiss said he took the photo as Pele’s friends seemed unable to operate their mobile phones.
“I took the phone of one of them and took the photo of all of us for him,” Infantino insisted.
But without ad revenue, we wouldn't even be here. And we might not be here much longer.
