Uefa president Aleksander Ceferin criticized FIFA president Gianni Infantino’s plan to sell a stake in the World Cup, labeling it “worse than the Super League” and stating it undermines the integrity of football. Ceferin expressed that he had no prior knowledge of the proposal and highlighted Uefa’s loss of confidence in Infantino, as several European football associations withdrew their support. He also condemned an incident where Infantino lifted a suspension for a U.S. player following intervention from former President Trump. Ceferin confirmed he would not run for FIFA president in 2027, emphasizing his commitment to Uefa and enjoying life outside of high-stakes politics.
