Anthony Gordon's GPS fails again in Barça vs Galatasaray
At the Camp Nou, Anthony Gordon once again displayed the controversial GPS device he wears on his left arm, forcing him to readjust it after every play against Galatasaray. The incident occurred during Barça's 1x1, which is temporarily leading the Champions League standings.
Gianni Infantino scandal
Meanwhile, The Times, cited by EFE, revealed that Gianni Infantino, FIFA president, received a second salary of almost two million dollars hidden, violating the transparency rules that the organization itself imposed. According to the report, the money was funneled through a company registered in Delaware and was used to purchase luxury apartments in Miami.
The article emphasizes that the revelation comes after a World Cup in which Infantino defended Donald Trump's interests and became involved in a scheme to sell a stake in the tournament to private investors, a project that he has already had to abandon.
Reactions and future of tracking
Xavier Bosch, contributor at xavierbosch.cat, commented that the situation with Gordon's GPS is “annoying” and that fitness coaches could benefit from precise data on distance covered, sprints and intensity, but that the attachment method needs improvement to avoid interruptions during the 90 minutes.
The journalist also noted that, although technological tracking adds value, the player's discomfort is evident and that a more reliable solution could boost his performance.
In summary, Gordon's episode highlights the tension between technological innovation and the athlete's comfort, while The Times investigation calls into question the financial integrity of Gianni Infantino and FIFA.
