UEFA, CONCACAF and AFC accuse FIFA of 'deception' and 'breach of trust' over
World Cup plans
Associated Press
UEFA, CONCACAF and the AFC believe that FIFA president Gianni Infantino's
recent plans to sell an interest in the World Cup was a "fundamental breach of
trust" with the institutions world soccer's governing body serves.
In an "open letter to the football family" revealed on Monday, UEFA, CONCACAF
and the AFC also said that "when trust is broken through deception, when an
individual places himself above the collective that entrusted him with
authority, that duty has been abandoned."
UEFA runs soccer in Europe, CONCACAF does the same for North, Central America
and the Caribbean, while the AFC governs the sport in Asia.
