FIFA have accused UEFA of orchestrating a coordinated smear campaign against its president, Gianni Infantino. The world football governing body recently had its say via a press statement, and fans have been reacting.
Criticizing Aleksander Ceferin and his organization, FIFA stated that UEFA blocked the FFE merely to prevent smaller nations from gaining financial strength and challenging the European elite.
FIFA added that the real economic motivation behind UEFA blocking the investment was to maintain their global market power.
It read, “While these applications are styled as legal pleadings with captions and docket numbers, they are little more than press releases in further support of UEFA’s smear campaign against FIFA and its leadership.
If soccer is strengthened in the developing world, global competition increases, which ultimately reduces UEFA’s market power and provides more competition for its flagship tournaments.
