FIFA subsidiaries lose bid to stop UEFA from seeking evidence.
An abandoned proposal to sell part of the World Cup to private funds is back in the news through a fight over documents. A Manhattan judge denied requests by FIFA subsidiaries to block UEFA from gathering evidence about the plan. The request sought to block disclosure of documents tied to it; with that effort rejected, UEFA’s evidence-gathering is no longer blocked. The ruling settles that procedural fight, not whether the proposed sale itself was a good idea.
