Richard Masters, the CEO of the English Premier League, stated that the International Football Federation ("FIFA") is responsible for the current crisis being faced. He emphasized that the organization pushed the self-destruct button, which negatively impacted the stability of international football. He pointed out that the disagreements between FIFA and the leagues revolve around the lack of involvement of the Global Leagues Association in important discussions, such as organizing new competitions and international match calendars. Despite this, clubs bear high salaries and training costs for limited contributions from FIFA. Masters explained that FIFA organizes the World Cup every four years, expanding to 48 teams, while the Premier League hosts over 380 matches annually—more than 14 times the number of World Cup matches—highlighting the financial burden on the clubs. He affirmed that FIFA's irresponsible actions have led to the escalation of the crisis, particularly their refusal to sell a share in the World Cup, which he believes should remain a trust for the future of football. He also called for comprehensive reform within the organization, including changes to the powers of the FIFA president and how crises are managed, amidst increasing pressure on the current head of the federation, Gianni Infantino.
