FIFA Accuses UEFA of Misinformation

FIFA has accused UEFA of waging a 'misinformation campaign' to influence the upcoming FIFA presidential election, urging a US court to reject a discovery request related to a controversial investment proposal.

FIFA has filed a court document accusing UEFA of trying to influence the race for its presidency through a 'misinformation campaign.' The world football governing body is urging a US federal court to reject a discovery request linked to an abandoned investment proposal called FIFA Forward Enterprise (FFE).

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