UEFA, CONCACAF, and AFC have attacked FIFA president Gianni Infantino. They accuse him of a fundamental breach of trust over World Cup sale plans. The confederations believe this is a failure of judgment, not just communication. FIFA defended Infantino, calling the criticism an effort to undermine him. Infantino apologised for the process surrounding the World Cup proposal.
Three football confederations - UEFA, CONCACAF, and the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) - have launched a strong criticism of FIFA president Gianni Infantino, accusing him of a "fundamental breach of trust" over his reported plans to sell an interest in the FIFA World Cup. The confederations released an open letter to the "football family" on Monday, stating that the controversy is not about money or previously agreed competition decisions, but about the integrity of football's governing structures and those elected to lead them.
They accused FIFA of treating the controversy as a communication failure rather than a leadership and governance issue, and called for an independent third-party investigation into the matter.
