Uefa president Aleksander Ceferin condemned Fifa president Gianni Infantino's plan to sell stakes in the World Cup, labeling it more detrimental than the previously proposed Super League. Ceferin emphasized that the Fifa Forward Enterprise scheme was effectively halted due to widespread opposition from various football associations, including Concacaf and the Asian Football Confederation.
Ceferin warned that Infantino could face a challenger in the upcoming re-election and highlighted a growing lack of confidence in his leadership among European football associations. The Nordic football associations have expressed serious concerns about Fifa's governance and are demanding assurances against private ownership in football competitions.
