FIFA Drops 20% Sale Plan After UEFA Pushback

Published August 3, 2026 · Updated August 3, 2026 · El País

FIFA has decided not to sell a 20% stake to private investors after Gianni Infantino reversed his plan. The decision followed UEFA’s strong opposition to the sale.

On Saturday, FIFA announced it would abandon its plan to sell 20% of its business to private investors. The reversal came after UEFA publicly opposed the proposal, calling it unacceptable.

The move leaves questions about Infantino’s influence and the future of FIFA’s governance. The organization now faces scrutiny over its leadership and credibility. esporist.com
