Fifa to provide limited access to World Cup sell-off documents

#sports #brief

Fifa has informed its Council members they may view key documents regarding Gianni Infantino’s failed plan to sell World Cup stakes. The files will be available for in-person review at Zurich headquarters under strict confidentiality protocols.

This move follows pressure from Uefa, which demanded transparency regarding the controversial Fifa Forward Enterprise proposal and questioned governance decisions. Fifa previously cited legal constraints and organizational priorities for not fully addressing Uefa’s inquiries. Council members must register to view the documents within two weeks, though the scope of the disclosed materials remains unclear ahead of the 18 November presidential candidacy deadline.

Editor's note: Accurate and concise summary of the FIFA document access situation.
