FIFA president Gianni Infantino is confident football will be totally different when it eventually resumes after the Coronavirus outbreak.

The disease also called Covid-19 has brought the whole world to a near standstill and has led to the cancellation of several events globally.

The Covid-19 has affected about 204 countries and territories and over one million cases have been confirmed.

Almost all football activities worldwide have been suspended until further notice to help prevent the spread of the deadly virus.

"Football will come back, and when it does, we'll celebrate coming out of a nightmare together," he told the Italian news agency ANSA in an interview.

"There is one lesson, however, that both you and me must have understood: the football that will come after the virus will be totally different...(more) inclusive, more social and more supportive, connected to the individual countries and at the same time more global, less arrogant and more welcoming."

He added: "We will be better, more human and more attentive to true values."
