Debbie Hewitt Urges FIFA to Reveal World Cup Private Investment Plans

Debbie Hewitt has called on FIFA president Gianni Infantino to disclose all documentation linked to a proposal that could allow private investors to acquire stakes in the World Cup.

Hewitt, FIFA’s vice-president and chairwoman of the Football Association, has sought full details of the plan, which concerns potential outside investment in football’s flagship international tournament. The request places fresh scrutiny on how any commercial involvement would be structured and what influence investors could hold over the World Cup.

No further terms of the proposal, including the possible value of any investment or the identity of interested parties, have been outlined.
