FIFA president Infantino 'not interested' by European Premier League talk

FIFA president Gianni Infantino says he isn’t interested in the prospect of a potential European Premier League.

A Sky News report revealed a £4.6 billion ($6bn) package being put together to potentially replace the Champions League with a new league tournament for Europe’s biggest clubs.

While UEFA is firmly against the reported proposal, FIFA is said to be supportive of the idea – but president Infantino refused to confirm either his support or opposition.
