Uefa's 55 associations threaten boycott over World Cup sale plans

UEFA’s 55 member associations have issued a threat to boycott all FIFA competitions if President Gianni Infantino proceeds with plans to sell ownership stakes in the World Cup and other tournaments. This declaration reinforces UEFA's stance that the World Cup is 'not for sale'. The situation has triggered reactions from home nations and CONCACAF. Upcoming competitions, such as the U20 Women’s World Cup in Poland, could be impacted, which starts in five weeks and features an England team that has already qualified. UEFA vice-president Laura McAllister highlighted the significance of the decision during discussions surrounding the vote.
