FIFA President Gianni Infantino is reportedly planning to sell a 20 percent stake in the World Cup to private investors, including Donald Trump's son-in-law, in a deal valued at 20 billion dollars. The proposal has provoked a strong backlash from the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA), effectively declaring a dispute with the international governing body's leadership.
In response to the reported plans, UEFA officials strongly criticized the initiative, emphasizing that no single individual or entity holds ownership of football. The controversy centers on the proposed partial privatization of the global tournament involving United States presidential family connections.
