UEFA Criticizes FIFA Leadership Over Scrapped World Cup Investment Plan

UEFA officially declared a loss of confidence in FIFA President Gianni Infantino after the governing body attempted to sell minority shares in World Cups to private investors.

Following widespread backlash from leagues and associations, Infantino scrapped the FIFA Future Enterprise plan, but UEFA continues to demand accountability for the opaque proposal.

With FIFA elections scheduled for March 18, the criticism from UEFA and the Asian Football Confederation increases pressure on Infantino's potential re-election bid.
