Qatar FA criticizes AFC on FIFA stance
The article focused on the Qatari Football Association's criticisms of the Asian Football Confederation regarding the lack of consultation before issuing a joint statement with the European Union and CONCACAF. The statement attacked the International Federation's plan to create a commercial entity called "FIFA Forward Enterprise" to manage FIFA’s commercial activities. The Qatari Federation clarified that they were neither officially nor unofficially consulted or informed prior to the release of the statement, raising questions about decision-making processes and transparency within the Asian Football Confederation. These criticisms come amid a crisis faced by FIFA President Gianni Infantino, after he canceled plans to sell investment projects related to the World Cup, amidst support from some parties. Meanwhile, his position remains uncertain, caught between the challenges of resigning or seeking re-election in the March 2027 elections.
