Danish FA allege FIFA Legal Committee evaded questions on Infantino’s plan
FIFA Legal Committee accused of evading questions on controversial World Cup proposal put forward by Gianni Infantino.
Denmark’s football chief has alleged that FIFA declined to answer “critical questions” at a Legal Committee meeting about its proposal to sell commercial stakes in tournaments, as he renewed calls for President Gianni Infantino to step down.
Danish FA (DBU) President Jesper Moller said he was surprised that the now-abandoned FIFA Forward Enterprise was not on the agenda and was frustrated by the world football governing body’s evasive response to his inquiries.
“I naturally used the meeting to ask a number of critical questions about the process, which I still consider to have been deeply problematic,” Moller said in a statement.
Last month, the DBU vowed to find a credible alternative to Infantino in next year’s election, saying it had lost confidence in the Swiss-Italian after his aborted proposal to sell commercial stakes in FIFA tournaments, including the World Cup.
