A historic statement and a strong reaction from the European Union

In case you didn’t know, we’re currently witnessing the biggest soccer war in the history of the sport between FIFA and the European Union!

UEFA released a very strong statement today announcing that all European national teams will boycott the World Cup due to FIFA President Infantino’s decision to sell shares in the upcoming World Cup to private investment firms!

Alexander Shevchenko, president of UEFA, said in the statement, “We will not participate in the World Cup or any FIFA tournaments. We categorically reject FIFA’s proposal to transfer ownership of the World Cup to private investors.”

“The World Cup cannot be treated as an investment product; it is soccer’s greatest legacy. The World Cup is not for sale. There is no place for this model in the world of soccer. The World Cup belongs solely to soccer and will always remain so. As long as Europe has a voice, it will never be put up for sale.”

The European Union, for its part, told FIFA, “We’re not going to back down, and you won’t be able to organize tournaments without the strongest continent in the game.” A legendary statement and a great response from the European Union.

It looks like we’re heading into the strangest era in soccer history because of the guy right in front of you!

FIFA President Infantino wants to sell a stake in the World Cup’s broadcasting, sponsorship, and ticket rights to investors. According to reports, Joshua Kushner, owner of Thrive Capital, is the investor linked to this deal, who will purchase 20% of the rights!

Infantino’s program consists of two parts. The first is the “FIFA Forward” program, which provides $20 million to each of the 211 federations registered with FIFA, and this amount will increase by $2 million every four years!

The second program is “FIFA Fast Forward,” which provides $40 million to each federation over 12 years, distributed across three cycles. The total amount will reach $68 million, compared to the mere $3 million that members received over 11 years before the Infantino era—the difference is staggering!

Infantino gave the federation presidents 53 days to vote on this plan amid total rejection from the European federation, which issued a statement saying, “None of us owns soccer, and FIFA does not have the right to sell it.” It looks like we’re in for some major drama in the coming period!

It’s clear that we’re heading into the biggest World Cup in history!

Exactly two days ago, Alejandro Domínguez, president of the South American Football Confederation, spoke about the 2030 World Cup and said that 64 teams will participate instead of 48, and that once this decision is finalized, it’ll be a cause for celebration!

This World Cup will be hosted by six countries: with Morocco, Spain, and Portugal as the main hosts. Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay will host the first three matches to mark the 100th anniversary of the first World Cup, which was won by Uruguay, with Argentina as runner-up—and Paraguay was the first country to host the Confederation’s headquarters!

Of course, this decision is driven by the staggering profits FIFA made from the current World Cup, which featured 48 teams. Just imagine—FIFA earned $13 billion, making it the most profitable tournament in soccer history, up from the $7.5 billion in revenue generated by the Qatar World Cup!

We’ll add more teams and bring in more people who never imagined they’d attend the biggest event in soccer. We’ll sell more tickets, jack up the prices, and create markets for reselling them. The result? Insane profits beyond imagination—that’s what soccer has become!

The result you see here isn’t artificial intelligence—it’s a real result from today’s friendly match between Bayern Munich and Rotach Eger!

Bayern Munich beat Rotach Egern 15–0 today, and at first glance, you might scoff and laugh at Rotach—after all, how could a German soccer club lose by 15 goals?!

But in reality, this match has a very heartwarming story behind it because Rotach plays in the amateur league and is based in a town called “Tegernsee”—a town where Bayern Munich usually starts its training camp every summer. So they’re taking advantage of the German giants’ presence to play a friendly match against them.

The great thing is that Bayern Munich agreed to play this match for five years to help promote this amateur club, and they also let all the proceeds from the match go to Rotach—proceeds that help everyone working at the club.

By the way, Bayern Munich has defeated Rotach with scores of 20–2, 23–0, 27–0, 14–1, and 15–0—for a combined total of 99–3. The scores are merciless, but it’s a wonderful initiative from the storied Bayern Munich.
