Blatter criticizes Infantino over football sale

Joseph Blatter, the former president of the International Federation of Football Associations (FIFA), criticized the plan to create a new company responsible for managing the rights of men's and women's World Cups as well as the Club World Cup. This plan involves allocating 20-30% of its capital to private investors and is valued at approximately 17.3 billion euros. Blatter considered this plan a threat to the essence of the game, warning that increasing investments and private sector infiltration could undermine the integrity of football. This comes amid strong opposition from the European Union, which emphasized that "the spirit and governance of football are not for sale," and amidst fears of economic impacts and conflicts of interest in the management of the sport.
