Arsene Wenger says the decision to withdraw from the FFE plan was “absolutely necessary and beyond question”FIFA’s chief of global football development Arsene Wenger says Gianni Infantino’s decision to withdraw from a plan to sell stakes in a World Cup company to private investors was “absolutely necessary and beyond question”. The Football Association of Wales (FAW) issued a statement confirming it had withdrawn its support. The institution, its mission and its responsibility towards world football continue, and that is why we should always keep our professionalism, sense of perspective and composure.” The Scottish Football Association has not commented on its stance on Infantino, but is understood to support UEFA’s view that confidence has been lost in Infantino. The Irish Football Association and the Football Association of Ireland have also so far not commented.
