Infantino apologises to FIFA Council for mistakes in proposal to privatise World Cup

FIFA President Gianni Infantino apologised to the organisation's council on Thursday (Oct 15) over proposal mistakes in the now-abandoned FIFA Forward Enterprise (FFE) project.

The FFE plan involved creating a company to run the commercial interests of FIFA competitions — including the World Cup — and selling a minority stake to private investors. Infantino said it was intended to generate additional funding for FIFA’s 211 member associations. #FIFA #Football #Worldcup
