UEFA plans to challenge FIFA President Infantino
Tensions are escalating between the European Football Union (UEFA) and the International Football Federation (FIFA) over the commercial World Cup rights crisis, as UEFA seeks to withdraw confidence from FIFA President Gianni Infantino after he withdrew from a plan to sell the tournament rights for around $20 billion. This is considered the most significant crisis since Infantino took over as FIFA President, involving issues of lack of transparency and flaws in decision-making processes, with calls for holding officials accountable and implementing strict oversight measures to prevent the recurrence of secret schemes. The crisis threatens to create disputes within the international football system, amidst the need for reforms in FIFA's management, especially with major upcoming sporting and commercial events.
