🚨 AFC join UEFA and CONCACAF in opposing FIFA's World Cup plan

The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) has formally joined UEFA and CONCACAF in opposing FIFA's proposed sale of stakes in its competitions to private investors, a plan backed by FIFA president Gianni Infantino. In a statement released on Friday, the AFC said it 'stands in solidarity' with UEFA and CONCACAF, warning the proposals could not achieve the broad consensus required to move forward. The growing opposition from three of football's major confederations significantly increases pressure on FIFA's privatization plans.
