AFC joins UEFA and CONCACAF in rejecting FIFA's FFE proposal as pressure mounts on CAF

The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) has joined UEFA and CONCACAF in opposing FIFA's controversial proposal to establish a $20 billion FIFA Forward Enterprise (FFE), intensifying pressure on the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to declare its position on the plan.

With three of football's major continental confederations now united against the FIFA Forward Enterprise proposal, attention is increasingly shifting to CAF, whose stance could play a decisive role in determining the future of the initiative.

The AFC argued that the proposed FIFA Forward Enterprise lacks the broad consensus needed to move forward, stressing that the FIFA World Cup derives its global significance from the participation and unity of all six continental confederations.
