2022 World Cup: FIFA investigating Salt Bae’s undue access to pitch in final celebrations
 FIFA is looking into how Salt Bae, a famous chef, got "undue access" to Argentina's post-World Cup festivities on the field.

After the finals, Salt Bae, a Turkish chef and online personality whose true name is Nusret Gokce, shared multiple pictures of himself with the World Cup trophy.

The chef also attempted a shot with Lionel Messi and numerous Argentina teammates.

His appearance in the immediate aftermath of the trophy presentation has drawn significant criticism and is currently the focus of a FIFA inquiry.

According to a widely circulated statement from FIFA, "The right internal action will be taken" after determining how people obtained unauthorised access to the field during the closing ceremony at Lusail Stadium on Sunday, December 18.

Bae shared a photo on Instagram earlier this month of himself at a World Cup game with Gianni Infantino, the president of FIFA, and legendary Brazilian athletes Ronaldo, Cafu, and Roberto Carlos.
