There was controversy over the role of the chef after the World Cup final in Qatar

After the World Cup final in Qatar, the organization of the event failed in the celebration of the Argentine team and several characters who had nothing to do with the team led by Lionel Scaloni were on the playing field. One of them was the international chef Salt Bae, who bothered Lionel Messi and his company. Now, FIFA has ruled on the fact.

While the top winner of the Ballon d'Or (7) made the Olympic return with the World Cup, images of Salt Bae, a renowned Turkish chef, began to circulate, who was close to the players who achieved the historic feat in the Middle East. He even ran into the coveted trophy and broke all the protocols.

The chef made the National Team players uncomfortable. A video circulated of Leo Messi visibly upset with Salt Bae. In addition, he posed with Ángel Di María, Lisandro Martínez or Cristian Romero. There were countless criticisms and they all pointed towards Gianni Infantino, FIFA president, who has a great friendship with the chef.

FIFA's pronouncement after what happened in the World Cup:

After the embarrassing moment starring Salt Bae, from FIFA they commented: “After a review, FIFA has been establishing how people gained improper access to the field after the closing ceremony at the Lusail stadium on December 18. Appropriate internal measures will be taken." It is worth remembering that the World Cup can only be played by a very select group of people.
