The English Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga and Serie A issued a comprehensive statement calling for the authority of the FIFA President to separate the commercial and regulatory functions of the organization and government.

The English Premier League was ranked ahead of the other three European championships - the Spanish La Liga, the German Bundesliga and the Italian Serie A - due to the call.

A major statement from the league called the president of the organization, Gianni Infantino, for actively promoting exploitative ideas and said that global football cannot develop if its foundations are undermined.

The catalyst for the sharp increase was the crisis surrounding the FIFA Forward Enterprise (FFE) - related to Infantino's plan to sell shares in the world championship to private investors. The leagues called this test one of the worst attacks on power in FIFA history.

Premier League director Richard Masters recently announced that with this scheme, the FIFA official has pressed the button of self-destruction with his hand. Although the FFE project has gone wrong, the authors state that the changes on the surface are not enough.

They indicate an overwhelming concentration of regulatory, commercial and political power in the hands of one person without an effective system of streaming and countering.

As an example of the importance of isolating disciplinary rules from political dispensation, one can guess the episode involving the disqualification of the American attacker Folarin Balogun at the world championship after.

In order to create a vital organ of world football, let’s be clear and objective, since the leagues have hung to FIFA’s lowest level:.

- Create a permanent representative body until leagues, clubs and graves (men and women’s football) are eliminated, so that there is a real input into the decision-making process.

- Ensure that a decision is made on the basis of evidence, where every significant proposition undergoes an independent assessment on all sides.

- Clearly distinguish between the regulatory and commercial roles of FIFA, ensuring the continued independence of ethical bodies, financial oversight and the election commission from the presidential administration.

This demarche became the continuation of the trivial struggle. Two fates of this, the same European leagues together with the professional team of Fifpro representatives submitted requests to the European Commission against FIFA through a unilateral expansion of the calendar of international matches.

FIFA then called the league out on hypocrisy and the unsettled interests of the world, pro-European functionaries insist that their actions are still underdeveloped management systems. At the same time, the three confederations have already called on Gianni Infantino to join the Representation, declaring their intention to run for re-enlistment from Berezna.

Oponenti looms an hour until 18 leaf fall, to hang an alternative candidate. The signatures of the sheet proclaim that any contender for the position may support their proposals, and even if the time has come, it will not only be those who discredit FIFA, but also those who themselves may be terrified.
