FIFA's proposal to sell up to a 20 per cent stake in a new subsidiary managing the World Cup and other tournaments is drawing widespread criticism from soccer officials and supporters. Senior adviser Carlos Cordeiro resigned, calling it "a bad deal for football," while Norwegian Football Association President Lise Klaveness said UEFA members agreed the proposal is "not a democratic process" and that football "should be owned by its members and be run democratically." Critics say the plan would give private investors a stake in footballs most valuable asset.
