Spanish Football Chief Criticizes FIFA Leadership Ahead of World Cup

21 Temmuz 2026Al Jazeera

La Liga President Javier Tebas has criticized FIFA and its president Gianni Infantino, claiming that the organization is 'destroying football' in pursuit of the World Cup. Tebas argues that Infantino's leadership has led to detrimental changes in the sport.
He believes that it is time for new leadership to take over and restore the integrity of football.
FIFA has faced criticism in recent years for its handling of various issues, including the expansion of the World Cup and the commercialization of football. Tebas's remarks come at a time when debates about the future direction of football governance are intensifying.
Tebas's comments reflect a growing discontent among football leaders regarding FIFA's approach to the sport, particularly in relation to commercial interests overshadowing traditional values. This sentiment is not isolated, as many stakeholders in football are increasingly vocal about the need for reform.
