Gianni Infantino has declared himself on more than one occasion as a defender of South American football and lover of passion that is lived on the continent. This time it was not the excerion when he referred to the new tournament he has in mind that will bring together the best teams in the world from the last major tournaments. In his country’s media rankings, the Swiss insisted on the realization of the new Club World Cup, with the unreleased format of 24 teams, where teams qualified as Independiente del Valle for having been champion of the 2019 Copa Sudamericana. In view of this, the representative referred to why he banked these projects above further progress in Europe.” In my opinion it is not About Bayern Munich facing Liverpool, but the current European champion against Boca Juniors. As PRESIDENT of FIFA my interest is wider and goes further, it must reach all latitudes, and that is why I prefer the Club World Cup over a European Super League, because in the future I want non-European teams to also have an international attraction,” he said.
Gianni Infantino banned the project of the new Club World Cup.
Infantino’s main criticism rests on the “European Premier League” proposal that England clubs began planning, driven by their U.S. owners, which the representative believes this contest would become a tournament that would inevitably become “boring.” On the other hand, it highlights the idea that the 2022 Qatar World Cup will be held with fans and added that “if that were not possible, then one would have to wonder if the World Cup should be played, because if people can’t go to stadiums it will be because we will all have bigger problems.” At the moment and despite the coronavirus pandemic we are completely within budget, but especially for all countries that depend on viewers’ incomes, the situation is difficult. This is mainly about the health of the entire population,” Infantino said in CH Media and Blick.
