FIFA to share documents related to World Cup private investment plan

FIFA will allow members of its ruling Council to view "key documents" related to the aborted project to sell stakes in the World Cup to private investors

"FIFA has informed the members of its Council, including all the vice-presidents, that they will have access to key documents in relation to FIFA Forward Enterprise," the source told AFP, referring to FIFA president Gianni Infantino's FFE proposal.

Members of the Council -- a total of 37 people including Infantino and eight FIFA vice-presidents -- were informed on Monday in a letter sent by FIFA Secretary General Mattias Grafstrom that they must come forward "in the next two weeks" if they want to see the documents "in person and in specific conditions".

The documents can be consulted at the headquarters of world football's governing body in Zurich, Switzerland, the source added.

The move came as a November 2 deadline set by European governing body UEFA to answer a series of questions related to the FFE proposal passed on Monday.
