Gianni Infantino anunță retragerea proiectului de investiții private al FIFA în urma criticilor primite

FIFA's president Gianni Infantino announced the withdrawal of plans to open the association to private investors due to opposition from UEFA and other confederations. The proposal to sell private stakes in future World Cup tournaments faced significant backlash from fans and football associations worldwide. Infantino stated that the project created divisions that were not in the best interest of football. He emphasized the need to unify the football community and focus on developing the sport, especially in countries needing support. UEFA had threatened to boycott upcoming World Cup editions in response to the proposal.
