FIFA Advisor Cordeiro Resigns Over World Cup Stake Sale Plan

Cordeiro issued a sharp rebuke of the initiative, distancing himself entirely from the development process. He labeled the potential sale a detrimental move for the organization’s member associations and the long-term health of the sport. His resignation serves as a direct challenge to the current leadership's fiscal direction, framing the proposal as an existential threat to the game’s integrity rather than a viable financial solution.
