FIFA President Gianni Infantino has agreed an annual salary of 1.5 million Swiss francs ($1.53 million) with no bonus in 2016, seeking to end a distracting issue of his first six months in office. FIFA said Infantino will also receive a chauffeured car, his lodgings paid, plus monthly expenses of 2,000 Swiss francs ($2,040), in the contract agreed with a three-member compensation panel and signed Wednesday. ''I am pleased that this matter is resolved and that I have a signed, valid employment agreement,'' Infantino said in a statement released by FIFA.
