Zurich, Apr 8 (IBNS) Speaking on the UEFA/ Cross Trading matter, FIFA President Gianni Infantino said his determination to restore the sports' reputation is stronger than ever.

In a statement released by FIFA, Infantino was quoted as saying, "If my determination to restore football’s reputation was already very strong, it is now even stronger.'

"I welcome any investigation conducted into this matter," he added.

Claiming transparency and clarity in everything, the FIFA President said, "For the sake of transparency and clarity, it is essential that all elements of this dossier are disclosed, as UEFA has done."

"Based on these documents, it is clear that all contractual matters were conducted properly by UEFA," he asserted

Infantino said that he is ready to help in case he is required to do so and said that it is for best interest of the sport that everything is visible to everyone.
