European football federations in UEFA say they will boycott all FIFA competitions over Gianni Infantino’s plan to sell stakes in the World Cup to private equity investors. UEFA describes the decision as unanimous after an urgent online meeting of its 55 member federations. The action targets FIFA’s offer to distribute $20 million to each of its 211 global members, an acceptance deadline set for mid-September. The proposal, revealed Tuesday, would spin off FIFA’s commercial operations into a $20 billion venture that would be 20% owned by private investors. The brief also recaps Bill Belichick discussing staff duty changes tied to a paid leave case at North Carolina.
