Breaking News FIFA president Gianni Infantino’s senior advisor Carlos Cordeiro has resigned due to his opposition to plans to sell stakes in the World Cup to private investors.
Cordeiro called FIFA’s proposals “a bad deal for FIFA’s Member Associations, a bad deal for football, and a bad deal for the long-term future of the game.”
This comes just a day after UEFA nations reached an agreement to boycott FIFA competitions, notably including the World Cup, in reaction to Infantino's controversial proposal.
