Summary
According to reports, the world governing body set a deadline for approval of the planned investor deal until the 19th. The former president of the US federation, who has worked for FIFA since 2021, also wrote: "It is a bad deal for FIFA's member associations, a bad deal for football, and a bad deal for the long-term future of this sport." This deal will now not happen. The value of the new business division would thus have been 20 billion dollars.
Furthermore, FIFA President Infantino had sought a billion-dollar sale of shares in the World Cup to investors.
