The chair of the Football Association has demanded that Fifa president Gianni Infantino release all documents connected to a controversial proposal to sell a stake in the World Cup.
The call is directed at Infantino over his plan, which has drawn controversy and prompted demands for greater transparency. The FA chair is seeking the publication of all papers relating to the proposal, rather than a limited account of the discussions or decisions behind it.
The issue concerns the potential sale of an interest in the World Cup, a move that would raise questions about how such a plan was developed, who was involved in considering it and what documents exist around the proposal.
No response from Infantino or Fifa was included in the supplied material. It is also not stated whether the documents will be released, what form the proposed sale would take, or what the next formal step may be.
The latest position is that the FA chair has pressed Infantino to make the full documentation available, leaving the focus on whether Fifa will provide the requested material.
