Luís Figo trends on social media amid criticism of FIFA

Former professional footballer Luís Figo has drawn attention on social media through vacation photos shared by his wife, Swedish model Helen Svedin. The 53-year-old former Champions League winner and FIFA World Player of the Year is noted by fans for maintaining a highly athletic physique.

Beyond personal updates, Figo has recently directed sharp criticism toward FIFA President Gianni Infantino. In an interview with the Daily Mail, Figo described recent developments within the organization as the “most despicable, fraudulent and cowardly selfish behavior” he has ever witnessed. He characterized Infantino as a “relic of the past of football” who seeks to implement changes primarily to enrich himself and his associates.
