Tebas: Infantino should resign for ”destroying the football industry”

LAUSANNE: (Jul 22) (AP) Gianni Infantino should resign as head of FIFA for “destroying the football industry” by expanding international competitions, La Liga president Javier Tebas said Tuesday.

It is not the first time he has lashed out at Infantino over fixture congestion and for considering a proposal to expand the 2030 men’s World Cup from 48 teams to 64.

“Increasing the number of national teams makes no sense. The football industry isn’t just the World Cup, which is the most important event. But not everything can revolve around the World Cup,” Tebas told La Gazzetta dello Sport.
