FIFA's Infantino puts aside private-equity plan
Posted on 2026-08-01 12:07:13
FIFA President Gianni Infantino is abandoning his divisive plan to sell World
Cup profits to private equity ... after receiving pushback from all corners
of the soccer world.

Infantino's decision came after his senior adviser, who sat on a White House
panel, resigned and Asia's soccer body joined Europe and North America in
opposing it.

Infantino had proposed creating a $20 billion company to run the World Cup
... with private investors including the Kushner family.

The backlash grew day by day.

UEFA's 55-member nations agreed to boycott the World Cup and all other FIFA
competitions over Infantino's plan, followed by CONCACAF and the Asian
Football Confederation.
