Carlos Cordeiro, the Chief Advisor to the President of FIFA, announced his resignation in protest against the plan to introduce private sector investments into major football tournaments, particularly the sale of a stake in the World Cup, valued at around $20 billion. He clarified that his resignation stems from his strong opposition to this plan and that he did not participate in its formulation, considering it a bad deal for the sport. His resignation holds significance because he is a prominent figure who represented the federation in the White House task force on organizing the World Cup, amidst growing global opposition to the privatization of the tournament.
