UEFA files criminal complaint against FIFA and Infantino over World Cup plans

UEFA is reportedly preparing a criminal complaint against FIFA and its president Gianni Infantino regarding a controversial World Cup sell-off plan. Documents filed in a Manhattan court indicate that this potential legal action concerns laws against 'criminal mismanagement' in Switzerland, FIFA's home. Infantino's proposal to sell stakes in an entity organizing future World Cup tournaments drew widespread criticism and was quickly retracted. UEFA is also seeking access to evidence and documents related to Thrive Capital Management, the proposed investor in the FIFA subsidiary.
