Infantino arranged European Super League partnership
A report in The Guardian British newspaper revealed that Gianni Infantino, President of the International Federation of Football Associations (FIFA), was planning to participate in a European Super League project, which was previously known as "FIFA Super League." The project, submitted in April 2021, included proposals to modify international match schedules and link the annual Club World Cup with the new league, while giving FIFA stakes in the project to influence decisions and share in revenues. Despite FIFA's decisive opposition to and public rejection of the project, documents indicate an intention to name the project "WO1 SL" and to include FIFA in decision-making processes, which puts additional pressure on Infantino following the failure of privatization attempts for the World Cup.
