FIFA today refuted a report in the US “New York Post”. The report said “FIFA President Infantino is seeking support from the Trump administration after plans to sell World Cup shares came to an end.” According to FIFA, the report was pure “nonsense.” The “New York Post” reported on August 3 that since this proposal to introduce private equity into the World Cup was abandoned last Friday, Infantino “tried many times to call Trump but failed to get through,” and “felt very isolated” at a time when criticism from the outside world was raging. In response to this, FIFA responded in a statement issued to the media today: “The FIFA President has not called the US President or members of his administration recently. The relevant reports are completely fictional.”
