UEFA Stands Firm: 'We're Boycotting FIFA Tournaments, Lost Faith in Infantino'

Nyon has taken a strong position against the management of world football's top official, who is prepared to 'privatise' the World Cup, stating: 'Attempts to distort the game in this way will not be repeated.'

UEFA has reaffirmed its tough stance against FIFA and its president, Gianni Infantino, reiterating the boycott threatened just days ago. An official statement declares that 'the loss of confidence in Gianni Infantino's presidency remains unchanged', citing that 'proposals to privatise major competitions have not been withdrawn' and there has been no assurance that 'attempts to distort the game in this way will not be repeated'.
