At odds with Fifa, Uefa and Concacaf eye NEW national team tournament 🏆

At odds with Fifa, Uefa and Concacaf eye NEW national team tournament 🏆 Amid the crisis with FIFA, UEFA and Concacaf have begun talks to organize a NEW national team tournament. The competition would have its first edition in 2028 (after the European Championship), would be held every two years, and would follow the Nations League format. UEFA and Concacaf still have to define several details of the tournament. One possibility is that the group stage would be played during the current international breaks in September, October, and November. Then, the knockout matches would take place in March. And the final stage, in June. Regardless of the format, all 96 countries from Europe, North America, Central America, and the Caribbean would be involved, and a large part of the revenue would be shared. The information comes from the British outlet The Guardian . League A (as The Guardian calls it in its report) could include, for example, Spain, England, Portugal, Canada, the United States, and Mexico. This discussion about a new tournament arose after FIFA president Gianni Infantino had considered creating a company and selling shares in the World Cup. The negative reaction, with protests mainly from UEFA and Concacaf, made Infantino abandon that plan, but it did not cool the heated atmosphere behind the scenes.
