In FIFA-UEFA tussle, European body accused of ‘misinformation campaign’

FIFA has accused UEFA of running a misinformation campaign and attempting to influence the race for FIFA presidency amid a governance crisis. FIFA urged a US court to reject UEFA’s discovery request related to a controversial investment proposal by FIFA President Gianni Infantino concerning World Cup rights. FIFA responded by stating UEFA’s claims contained false or misleading statements and that the allegation Infantino sought personal profit was unfounded.
