'We can decide not to play in it' - UEFA president Ceferin warns new World Cup plans could lead to European boycott

 

There continues to be fierce opposition to the controversial proposal suggesting that the tournament should be held every two years

UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin has warned that the new World Cup plans could lead to a European boycott of the competition.

Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has been pushing for major reform in his role as FIFA's chief of football development.

The Frenchman has proposed that the World Cup should be held every two years, with it his belief that a structural change is necessary to reduce travelling time and the number of matches played at the top level of international football.
