The Football Association and Concacaf have both said they are "deeply concerned" by FIFA's proposed private investment plan, criticising the governing body over what they described as a lack of transparency and due process.

FIFA announced on Tuesday proposals to set up a private company to run its competitions which would have links to the extended family of U.S. President Donald Trump.

The surreal thing is FIFA makes billions in profits. And it distributes those profits back to the FAs (who by the way usually use them to make their officials rich; it doesn’t “trickle down”).

FIFA is rolling in money as an organisation. There is absolutely no need to sell. Especially to fucking Jared Kushner’s family my godd…

But I guess this is what happens when Monaco, Kuweit, Lichtenstein, and Bahrain have the same voting power in FIFA as Brazil, France, Spain, and England.
