Al Khalifa opposes FIFA plan and warns members
The article focused on the Asian Football Confederation's criticisms of FIFA for not consulting with them before proposing a plan to involve private sector investors in organizing the World Cup. Sheikh Salman bin Ibrahim Al Khalifa expressed his concern that the plan, which includes creating a new entity valued at $20 billion to oversee the tournaments, is an unilateral move that could undermine the fundamentals of cooperation and transparency among continental federations. He emphasized the need to allow sufficient time for a comprehensive review of the proposal, especially by the six federations involved, clarifying that the support of all federations is essential for the plan's approval. FIFA has not issued an immediate response to these criticisms.
