UEFA threatens FIFA boycott over Infantino's World Cup rights proposal

UEFA announced a potential boycott of all FIFA competitions unless Gianni Infantino's plan to sell World Cup rights to private investors is abandoned. This unprecedented threat comes as UEFA member nations express strong opposition to what they describe as an irresponsible proposal that undermines FIFA's moral authority. Analysts suggest that the situation may lead to Infantino's ousting as FIFA President. UEFA's emergency meeting underscored the importance of preserving the World Cup for football rather than commercial interests. The standoff places significant pressure on FIFA’s governance and future direction in global soccer.
