UEFA Threatens FIFA Over 2026 Cup Governance

UEFA has issued a cease-and-desist to Gianni Infantino and several FIFA officials following the failure of the FIFA Forward Enterprise project.

This tension comes as the 2026 World Cup approaches in the United States, Canada and Mexico. UEFA contests the management methods of the world's largest football competition.
