Infantino on the World Cup: to enable African people to live a good life without having to cross the Mediterranean

FIFA President Infantino criticized UEFA's position, which opposes the biennial proposal for the World Cup, and Infantino stressed that "before Europe has everything, it must be given the opportunity to other continents".

"We see football moving in one direction, some people have everything and most people have nothing. In Europe, the World Cup is held twice a week because the best players in the world play there. Infantino warned on Wednesday ahead of the European meeting in Strasbourg, France, which will discuss Football Management: Economy and Value.

Infantino stressed that even on the european continent, there is a huge gap in the leagues themselves between the various countries, with some clubs retaining the best players and many clubs unable to participate in the Champions League. In addition, he believes that it is necessary to "cover the whole world", especially Africa.

Infantino: "We must give Africans hope that they may have a better life without having to cross the Mediterranean, and we must give them opportunity and dignity." ”

Infantino, on the other hand, has also defended Qatar after criticism of its lack of respect for human rights. "In Europe, it took centuries for people to make a difference," he said. There's a lot to do and a lot to change. We must continue to exert pressure, but at the same time recognize that Qatar has changed. ”
