## Resource

Outrage over soccer governing body FIFA's plans to sell stakes in a nearly AU$29 billion subsidiary to manage its competitions is continuing. FIFA wants a venture capital firm run by the brother of US President Donald Trump's son-in-law to lead a group of private backers. The governing body of European soccer remains steadfast in its rejection of the move, saying FIFA cannot continue to use the sport to enrich themselves and their friends.
