Blatter Tells Infantino Football Is Not for Sale

Swiss former FIFA President Sepp Blatter criticized the proposed creation of a new company to manage commercial rights for the World Cup tournaments. The project is valued at 17.3 billion euros and plans to offer 20-30% of its equity to private investors. The goal is to expand private investment; however, concerns have been raised that it may prioritize commercial interests over sporting aspects. Blatter viewed this as a threat to the essence of the game, emphasizing that football is not for sale. Organizations such as UEFA have also strongly opposed the project, coinciding with fears of conflicts of interest and the potential nomination of Infantino for the presidency of the investment entity after his term ends in 2031.
