UEFA ends FIFA boycott threat after Infantino's failed plan

This decision allows six European teams to prepare for the FIFA Under-20 Women’s World Cup starting on September 5 in Poland. The backlash against Infantino's proposal, which aimed to create a $20 billion subsidiary, led to widespread criticism and a demand for assurances from UEFA.
