Gianni Infantino Is Putting The World Cup Up For Sale

The recently concluded World Cup was the shining example of FIFA president Gianni Infantino's particular brand of evil.
Specifically, Infantino's plan would include FIFA setting up a company, tentatively named FIFA Forward Enterprise, that would handle the commercial rights to the World Cup.
That's what led to the 48-team World Cup, and what will surely lead to another expansion to 64 teams in the near future.
In 2018, he attempted a similar investor ploy, a $25 billion plan that would have seen an expanded Club World Cup and a Nations League tournament encompassing the entire world.
This new plan is miles beyond that, though, because the World Cup is the World Cup.
