FIFA President Gianni Infantino's plan to create a new commercial company to manage the financial rights of the World Cup and other tournaments has met widespread rejection from Europe and other regions.

However, critics see the project as an attempt to privatize one of the sport's most valuable assets and are concerned about its impact on the independence of football, fearing that financial decision-making and competition could be increasingly driven by profit at the expense of sporting principles. The European Union and member countries continue to oppose the project, calling for greater transparency and consultation, amid questions about its implications for the future of the game and its independence.
