UEFA says it is prepared to take legal action against FIFA over a proposed investment plan associated with FIFA president Gianni Infantino. Multiple reports state that UEFA’s threat follows FIFA’s scrapping of plans to sell stakes in certain FIFA competitions to private investors. The reports describe the move as a reversal from earlier intentions that UEFA considered significant enough to trigger legal concern. UEFA’s position is that the cancelled plan involved decisions or actions that UEFA believes require further scrutiny under relevant agreements and governance rules. The dispute centers on how commercial rights and stakes in major tournaments would be handled, and whether FIFA’s approach would comply with existing arrangements involving UEFA. FIFA has not been described in these reports as offering a direct response, and the reports focus primarily on UEFA’s stated willingness to pursue legal remedies. The situation is presented as an ongoing disagreement between the two organizations following FIFA’s change of course on the investment proposal.
