"Some media have misunderstood that the DBU is withdrawing from FIFA," the DBU's communications chief Jakob Hoejer told Reuters in a WhatsApp message.
"This was not said at the press conference. We are critical and not satisfied and will not vote for the current FIFA president (Gianni Infantino). We will discuss further actions with our Nordic and European colleagues."
In Wednesday's press conference, the Danish FA revealed that FIFA had threatened sporting penalties such as yellow cards "at a minimum" for wearing the armband which is part of a campaign to support diversity.
As a result, the seven European nations that had planned to wear the “OneLove” headband – Denmark, England, Wales, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium and the Netherlands – abandoned the idea.
Instead, the German players held their hands over their mouths in protest of being silenced by FIFA ahead of the opener against Japan.
Additionally, German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser wore the 'OneLove' armband as she sat next to FIFA President Infantino during the match.
News of Denmark's intention to withdraw from Fifa had been circulating throughout the day.
Even the sentences attributed to Jesper Möller and Jakub Jensen, respectively president and managing director of the Danish federation demonstrate a strong contrast between Denmark and Fifa: "It is not a decision that we have taken now, we have been discussing it since August. We have no intention of supporting Gianni Infantino in his bid for re-election. There are 211 countries in FIFA, the president said he has support from 207 countries. Denmark is not among them. And we won't be."
