Infantino and Fifa vs Football and UEFA youtube.com/shorts/1AJgBSW…

@SkySportsNews I thought they would be against him!!!!

BREAKING: Qatar Football Association release a statement supporting Gianni Infantino 🚨

@Itshaber It is a great point. We've only really seen the big players move to Madrid (both Ronaldos, Mbappe, Hazard etc). I don't think we've seen a Balon D'Or contendor move to the Premier League like this.

As much as I don’t want Arsenal to get Vinicius Junior. Part of me secretly does because I want to see the knock on effect. It’s insanely rare that a transfer of this size happens. Usually it’s a Prem superstar going to Madrid never the other way around.

@UtdFaithfuls Good potential of it. But Real Madrid are bold enough to call his bluff - so the deal could legtimately happen.

Yeah, we all know how this ends. He's going to use Arsenal to get one last massive Real Madrid contract.

@UtdActive I reckon the deal might legitmately happen. That being said, that's just how media works now. The tweet that has the most likes is seen to be closer to the truth than not.

Personal terms haven't been agreed, yet this had all the X accounts posting it yesterday. We live in a society where people lack the logic to tell what's real and what isn't. People believe everything these days, showing just how cooked this generation really is.

@centregoals Wage Demands are quite signifcant when you consider his output in the past 5 years. It's not worked at United, but he needs to rebuild. A team will take a chance on him in one of the top 5 leagues. He just needs to understand what United gave him in 2021 will not happen now.

Jadon Sancho (26) is still a free agent. Training at a 10th-tier team’s ground. No team is rushing to sign him. Football is unforgiving.

@UtdAlen I think we will defintely sign more. Fustration is we are going to start the season without all our business being completed. I dislike going into the season without majority of business being concluded.

Finally accepted that we won't sign anyone else till the end of the window and we will struggle badly as a result. Fuck these owners

@markgoldbridge Lacey has looked strong. Obviously alot of 1st team players to return and it is preseason - but pretty clear we are going to need some more reinforcements for a season with much more games to play.

Thoughts on that half? I'm LIVE youtube.com/live/o6kTeYHG2…

@UnitedStandMUFC They aren't mugs. They agreed a fee when he went on loan. Barcelona then wanted Rashford cheaper - we didn't roll over like we might of done in the past. If we sold Rashford for 15 million everybody would be saying how bad we are at selling players.

🚨 Barca have CALLED THEIR BLUFF! 🫨 #mufc #transfers #rashford

The FIFA is not a private equity fund. It is an association with statutes, regulations, and a fiduciary responsibility to protect the global game. If you sell football's crown jewels to private investors, you also sell part of the game – especially its soul. Money matters, but it must never become everything. #FIFA #Football #GianniInfantino

@MadridXtra @ellarguero One thing I respect about Real in transfer windows is if the manager wants multiple signings and big changes he gets it.

🚨 CONFIRMED: Jose Mourinho wants a new CB signing. @ellarguero

@TouchlineX @nypost Moment UEFA said no the investors were always going to look at dropping out. Completely overplayed the hand he thought he had.

🚨 𝗠𝗔𝗝𝗢𝗥 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: FIFA have abandoned Gianni Infantino's plan to sell stakes in the World Cup after private investors and JP Morgan both withdrew from the project. — @nypost

@MadridXtra @nypost His position is really untenable now. I reckon he'll be leaving FIFA pretty soon. Especially with other executives turning on him too.

🚨💣 BREAKING: FIFA HAVE DECIDED TO END GIANNI INFANTINO'S PROJECT TO SELL STAKES OF THE WORLD CUP. The private investors have pulled out, and JP Morgan have also pulled out. IT’S OVER. @nypost

@FabrizioRomano They self reported this issue didn't they? Probably what's saved them from a points deduction.

🚨 FA statement on Chelsea. "A financial sanction of £10 million and a suspended two-window registration ban have been imposed on Chelsea FC for breaches of The Football Association [The FA] Football Agent Regulations, Regulations on Working with Intermediaries and Third Party Investment in Players Regulations.   "The FA charged Chelsea FC with 74 breaches of FA Rule E1.2 after its current ownership self-reported misconduct upon its purchase of the club. The FA is continuing to investigate individual misconduct arising out of this case. "Chelsea FC admitted to the 74 breaches of FA Rule E1.2 prior to a hearing and an independent Regulatory Commission imposed a six-point deduction, which was to be suspended until 30 June 2027, and a £10 million fine.  "The club appealed against the suspended points deduction and an independent Appeal Board allowed the appeal and set aside this sanction following a further hearing. In its place, the Appeal Board imposed a registration ban for two complete and consecutive transfer windows which is suspended until 30 June 2027.  "The £10 million fine imposed by the Regulatory Commission was not subject to appeal and the full amount will be invested into grassroots football."

@JacobsBen With an advisor also quitting I'm going to say his position is untenable now. He'd of survived too if he hadn't done this. There was alot of anger over some of his decisions at this world cup and the 2022 one. And he'd of survived it.

🚨 The AFC say they "stand in solidarity with UEFA and CONCACAF" adding FIFA must undertake "an urgent review of its governance". Damning statement that adds even more pressure on Gianni Infantino. "The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) has observed with deep concern the developments of recent days relating to the proposed establishment of FIFA Forward Enterprise (FFE) and the uncertainty that has emerged across the global football community. "The AFC stands in solidarity with UEFA and CONCACAF in expressing serious concerns over FIFA’s proposal to introduce private investment into FIFA's flagship competitions and the decision-making process around FFE. "The fact that the situation has reached the point where the real possibility of a FIFA World Cup boycott has entered public discourse should concern everyone who cares about the future of our game. Football should never have been placed in such a position. "Against this backdrop, and in light of the clear positions expressed by UEFA and CONCACAF, as well as the unprecedented divisions that have emerged across the football world, the AFC believes that the proposed FFE cannot realistically achieve the necessary broad consensus and unity required to move forward. "The FIFA World Cup is the pinnacle of global football and derives its strength from the participation of all Confederations and the world’s leading football nations. Any proposal that risks undermining the unity and universal character of the competition must be reconsidered. "While the immediate debate centres on FFE, the AFC considers this issue extends far beyond a single proposal. Rather, it has exposed fundamental weaknesses in FIFA’s consultation and decision-making processes that must now be addressed. While the AFC notes FIFA’s latest clarification on the proposal, the central concerns surrounding governance, institutional process and meaningful consultation remain unanswered. "A proposal of such significance, with the potential to affect the commercial, sporting and strategic future of world football, must not emerge through processes that leave Confederations, Member Associations (MAs) and even FIFA’s own governing bodies, including the FIFA Council, feeling sidelined. The primary objective for world football must be to ensure that decisions of such magnitude are being developed through processes that are anchored on transparency and command the confidence of the football community. "This is not the first occasion where major stakeholders have been confronted with significant initiatives after the direction of travel appears to have already been determined. Such an approach undermines confidence in FIFA’s governance framework and diminishes the authority of its statutory bodies. No subsequent consultation process, however well intentioned, can replace early engagement with the appropriate FIFA bodies and the football family. "The AFC believes this moment must become a catalyst for strengthening institutional reform. While every FIFA MA must have the opportunity to consider and determine proposals affecting the future of world football, meaningful democracy is not measured solely by the opportunity to vote. It begins with transparent governance, timely consultation, informed deliberation and genuine participation throughout the decision-making process. "Accordingly, the AFC calls upon FIFA to undertake an urgent review of its governance and decision-making framework to ensure that proposals of global significance are developed through proper consultation, meaningful engagement and appropriate oversight by FIFA’s statutory bodies. "The FIFA World Cup, and the game itself, belong to the entire global football family. Their future must always be shaped collectively, through institutions that reflect the voices of all Confederations and MAs."

@RafaelH117 Not really. 6 of the last 8 in the 2026 World Cup were European teams. They get the most qualification spots. The value of the competition to investors just dropped significantly. All they were bothered about was making as much money as possible. And that's just dropped.

What happens if FIFA goes ahead with their plan, sell part of the World Cup to investors and now that European nations aren’t involved the payoff to football associations across the globe skyrockets, making it even more tempting? UEFA have walked into a trap?

@Leumaswazhere2 Net spend is around £36 million and it's August next week. Sure I get being apprehensive, especially because it's not worked out for us before. But how often does a legitimate world class, game changing player just come available. Surely it's worth at least exploring?

Man Utd fans are a funny bunch, we're currently rebuilding and signings like this are beyond what we can do Go look at who they were signing in their first 3 years of rebuild

@ZaidBalll One of the few true superstars in football. Shouldn't even be a question to at least explore a deal.

United bros should we be copping if he’s available on the market?

@StevenMcinerney I think every big club should be trying if there's indication he's going to leave Madrid. The fact only Arsenal have expressed some form of interest in exploring whilst City, United, Liverpool and Chelsea haven't yet is a bit crazy.

City would be mental to not be strongly in for Vini Jr if he's available IMO.
