The plan involves releasing money from the organization's reserves to more than double the planned distribution funding for the 2027 to 2030 period.
The initiative is scheduled for approval at a FIFA Council meeting in Zurich. The meeting is attended by FIFA President Gianni Infantino and the football body's 36 other members.
