FIFA’s $20 Billion Stake Sale Sparks Global Controversy

FIFA president Gianni Infantino has announced a plan to sell a 20 percent stake in the organization’s commercial arm, a move that would value the unit at roughly twenty billion dollars. The proposal has drawn a sharp rebuke from UEFA, whose president Aleksander Ceferin warned that the soul of soccer cannot be reduced to a tradable asset, highlighting a deepening rift between the two governing bodies. Critics argue that Infantino underestimates the emotional weight that fans attach to the World Cup, a sentiment that has fueled protests across continents and raised questions about the future of the sport’s cultural fabric. Central to the deal is venture‑capitalist Joshua Kushner, brother‑in‑law of former U.S. president Donald Trump, who would partner with his firm Thrive Capital. Kushner, whose portfolio includes stakes in Instagram, Spotify and Slack, brings a personal fortune estimated at three point six billion dollars to the table. The involvement of the Trump family adds a political dimension, as Ivanka Trump is married to Kushner and the couple has cultivated close ties to the former administration, a connection that both bolsters and complicates the transaction’s public perception. UEFA’s response underscores the uphill battle facing the proposal, as the organization calls for unity and stresses that the sport’s heritage should remain insulated from market forces, leaving the ultimate fate of the stake sale uncertain.
