"I'm not interested for two reasons. One is that I love Uefa and I love working here, and I think that at a certain point... it's also time to enjoy life a little," he tells the podcast "The Rest Is Politics."

The second reason is that my credibility is much, much higher if I'm not interested in the job.

Criticism of Infantino and calls for him to resign have been mounting since his plan to sell World Cup shares to private investors became known. The plan has since been withdrawn.

Ceferin is one of those who has been outspoken in his criticism of Infantino.
