Opponents of Fifa president Gianni Infantino are threatening "non co-operation" with the governing body unless he steps down, according to senior Uefa sources.

Some of those involved in the rebellion vow "there is no going back" for as long as Infantino remains in position, as the fallout over his scrapped plans to sell off stakes in Fifa competitions to private investors intensifies.

While the details of the proposed disruption remain unclear, one senior figure said they would "certainly expect" a refusal to participate in Fifa meetings.

It comes after European football's governing body Uefa threatened legal action over the proposals, and Wales publicly withdrew backing for Infantino's bid for a fourth term as Fifa president, with England's Football Association set to follow suit.
