FIFA Accuses UEFA of Misinfo Campaign

FIFA has accused UEFA of waging a 'misinformation campaign' and attempting to influence the organization's presidential election.

FIFA has filed a court document accusing UEFA of spreading misinformation and trying to influence the race for FIFA's presidency. The world football governing body is urging a US court to reject a discovery request linked to a controversial investment proposal called FIFA Forward Enterprise (FFE).

Last month, UEFA asked a US federal court for permission to obtain testimony and documents for use in a planned criminal complaint in Switzerland against FIFA president Gianni Infantino regarding the abandoned plan to transfer World Cup commercial rights into the FFE subsidiary. saltysenoritaaz.org
