The football associations of Finland, Sweden, and Denmark have written to European Commissioner for Sport Glenn Micallef seeking a meeting to discuss concerns about governance at FIFA, according to sources. The letter highlights issues of transparency, consultation, and decision-making at FIFA, particularly regarding the abandoned FIFA Forward Enterprise proposal.
The Nordic federations believe that private investors acquiring interests in FIFA competitions raises questions about control over the future of the global game. The EU office for sport has received the letter but it is unclear whether Micallef will accept the proposed meeting.
