The chair of the English Football Association has formally requested that FIFA President Gianni Infantino disclose all documentation regarding a previously abandoned proposal to sell a stake in the World Cup to private investors. The request follows a period of intense scrutiny surrounding the potential commercialization of the tournament's ownership structure.
The proposal, which was spearheaded by Infantino, was withdrawn following widespread opposition from various stakeholders across the global sporting community. The English FA’s call for transparency marks a continued effort by football governing bodies to seek clarity on the internal decision-making processes that led to the controversial plan.
