UEFA’s 55 member associations, including England, have agreed to boycott FIFA-organised competitions if FIFA president Gianni Infantino proceeds with plans to sell parts of World Cup commercial rights to private investors, a person familiar with the matter said. The boycott would cover the World Cup and FIFA’s expanded Club World Cup — a potential rival to UEFA’s lucrative Champions League — and is expected to significantly undermine Infantino’s proposal. FIFA’s 211 member associations must approve the plan by Sept. 19 or face possible financial penalties. UEFA began internal discussions this week on how clubs and member associations would implement the resistance after rejecting FIFA’s investor proposal earlier.
