ZURICH -- FIFA president Gianni Infantino has agreed an annual salary of 1.5 million Swiss francs (€1.3m) with no bonus in 2016.
FIFA said Infantino also receives a chauffeured car, lodgings paid, plus monthly expenses of 2,000 Swiss francs ($2,040), in the contract signed Wednesday. He will be eligible for a bonus in 2017 under a new FIFA compensation policy.
"I am pleased that this matter is resolved and that I have a signed, valid employment agreement," Infantino said in a statement released by FIFA.
The deal backdated to February, ends a dispute that saw former FIFA audit panel chairman Domenico Scala resign in protest.
Infantino had described as "insulting" Scala's offer of around 2m Swiss francs ($2.04m) and no bonus.
FIFA's former president and secretary general, Sepp Blatter and Jerome Valcke, got bonuses of at least $10m for each World Cup.
Blatter and Valcke got basic salaries of around $3m and $2m, respectively, before leaving FIFA this year. Both have been banned from football by FIFA's ethics committee for financial wrongdoing and are under criminal investigation by Swiss federal prosecutors.
FIFA described the compensation system being phased out as "inadequate and open to malfunction and misuse."
The new secretary general Fatma Samoura has agreed a contracted salary of 1.3 million Swiss francs ($1.32 million) the world football body said.
That reverses a Scala recommendation that the CEO-like secretary general should be the highest-paid staffer following reforms which took some executive powers from the presidential office.
The compensation panel met on Wednesday under the leadership of Scala's replacement, Tomaz Vesel, and included Issa Hayatou, the longtime African footbal leader who is Infantino's senior vice president and FIFA finance panel chairman.
"The compensation amounts in our view are absolutely appropriate considering the challenging duties of the president and the secretary general," said Vesel, a state auditor from Slovenia.
