Global critique of FIFA tournament privatization
A new project by FIFA aims to consolidate all commercial rights related to football into a single company called "FIFA Forward Enterprise," with the goal of generating up to $4.2 billion annually and reinvesting the profits back into the sport. This initiative has raised serious concerns among the European Union and regional football organizations, which consider the plan a violation of competition rules and have threatened to challenge it. They have also expressed objections regarding the lack of transparency, proper procedural measures, and the suspicious background of some investors—particularly noting that Jared Kushner's brother, Joshua, is one of the founders of the investment fund involved in the project. A vote on the plan is expected to take place after a deadline of September 19, with warnings that the initiative could lead to dramatic changes in the structure of global football.
