The proposal, backed by venture capitalist Joshua Kushner and advised by J.P. Morgan, aims to raise billions through a new entity called FIFA Forward Enterprise. This isn’t the first time FIFA president Gianni Infantino has pushed such a deal—his 2018 attempt with a Japanese firm collapsed amid fierce UEFA opposition. UEFA, representing 55 nations, has unanimously rejected the plan, calling the World Cup a sporting legacy, not an investment product, and threatening to pull all national teams unless the proposal is scrapped. Infantino is offering member federations $40 million to approve the deal, with $20 million available by September 19. With FIFA’s 211-member vote looming and Infantino’s re-election bid already under pressure, the stakes couldn’t be higher.
