FIFA Accuses UEFA of Misinformation

FIFA has accused UEFA of waging a 'misinformation campaign' and attempting to influence the upcoming presidential election.

FIFA is urging a US court to reject a discovery request from UEFA, which is seeking testimony and documents related to an abandoned plan to transfer World Cup commercial rights to a subsidiary called FIFA Forward Enterprise (FFE).

Last month, UEFA asked a US federal court for permission to obtain information for a planned criminal complaint in Switzerland against FIFA president Gianni Infantino. FIFA denies claims of undervaluation of the FIFA Forward Enterprise and claims UEFA is attempting to interfere with the upcoming presidential election. newsindata.org
