During Argentina's celebration, at the Lusail stadium, where they won the long-awaited World Cup, the presence of the Turkish chef Salt Bae caused annoyance, who bothered Lionel Messi and the rest of the squad. Now, FIFA made a decision on the character's presence in upcoming international competitions.

The historic celebration of the team led by Lionel Scaloni was marred by the organization's error in allowing Salt Bae to enter. The chef, famous for his meat restaurant and the way he puts salt in his dishes, stepped on the grass of the Lusail stadium and was with the Argentine national team, who showed his surprise and indignation.

One of them was Lionel Messi. The Albiceleste captain was visibly uncomfortable with Salt Bae's constant pressure to take a photo. In addition, videos circulated with Lisandro Martínez or 'Cuti' Romero, who were not calm with the presence of the Turk. Salt Bae is a great friend of Gianni Infantino, president of FIFA, and the criticism fell on him.

FIFA's decision after what happened in the World Cup final:

The 'Daily Mirror' portal maintained that FIFA will prohibit Salt Bae from being present at the next World Cup. Although he can enter the stadiums like any fan, he will not be entitled to an official invitation, as detailed by the British portal. The chef violated the FIFA protocol that indicates that only players and heads of state have the right to touch the trophy.
