The Arsene Wenger-fronted plan for a World Cup every two years was more or le s a nonsense and FIFA saw sense by finally ditching the idea, UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin said.FIFA president Gianni Infantino last week indicated the world governing body had dropped the project, which had drawn strong criticism from European Drake Caggiula Men Jersey and South American authorities in particular.Infantino said FIFA had never proposed the change to the tournament that has taken place every four years since the first edition in 1930.But Infantino had been seen by many as a cheerleader for the switch, making a widely criticised claim in January that opportunities delivered by a World Cup every two years could provide impetus for African migrants to avoid treacherous cro sings to Europe, suggesting they could avoid death in the sea.Ceferin told a news conference on Thursday: We are happyFIFA ordered that it Zack Kassian Jersey is finally off the table, the biennial World Cup.Formally it was not proposed by FIFA, but it was encouraged by FIFA. Its good theyve listened to the football community.For me, its very good that this project that is more or le s a nonsense is off the table.Former Arsenal manager Wenger, as FIFAs chief of global development, hadbeen the main advocate for the biennial World Cup, promoting the concept widely ahead of a po sible vote and nailing his colours firmly to Josh Archibald Men Jersey the mast.Infantino claimed the alterations would yieldsignificant financial returns if the plans wereapproved, with a boost of $4.4billion in the first four-year cycle of a new international calendar, whichwould climb to $6.6bn if each confederation also switchedits regional competition to become biennial.A vote now appears highly unlikely to happen in the near future, and Ceferin questioned whether there should be any other major tournaments added to the international calendar.About new tournaments, I dont think theres much time for new competitions, but lets speak about it and lets see, Ceferin said.For now, we didnt discu s it. Ceferin said UEFA would take a decision very soon on Ru sias po sible involvement in the Womens European Championship, which begins in July and will be staged in England.Despite Ru sias invasion of Ukraine, which has led the country to be widely ostracised, a final ruling has yet to be taken on whetherthe womens football team should be allowed to take part.The mens team were swiftly thrown NHL Edmonton Oilers Women Jersey out of the World Cup by FIFA, denied a place in a play-off to reach the Qatar 2022 finals.Ceferin said: There is a court case at the Court of Arbitration for Sport in the case of the Ru sian Football Union. We expect some information from there as soon as po sible, but we know we are in a hurry to decide about this i sue. We know the Euro is very soon and that well have to take the decision soon, but we need some more information.Asked whether Ru sian football authorities should be expelled by UEFA, Ceferin Josh Archibald Kids Jersey said there were considerations about many things these days.Ru sia has bid to host the Euro 2028 or Euro 2032 finals, in a move that has been met with widespread disbelief.Ceferin will be aware of that sentiment and said of Ru sias bid: We are discu singit, and you will have the answer very soon.
