Sports2 sources1 country🔦 Under-reported49m ago
Joshua Kushner, a venture capitalist and brother of Jared Kushner, has publicly expressed regret regarding his investment group's involvement in a proposal by FIFA president Gianni Infantino to sell stakes in the World Cup. The plan, which has since been scrapped, aimed to commercialize aspects of the tournament but faced significant backlash from the football community.
Kushner stated that his firm failed to properly anticipate the political dynamics surrounding global football. He noted that he would have declined to participate in the venture had he been aware of how the sport's stakeholders would react to the proposed changes.
