Fifa and its president Gianni Infantino have been accused of breaking trust “through deception” in an open letter issued by Uefa, Concacaf and the Asian Football Confederation.
The letter, signed by the presidents and general secretaries, said recent controversy over the Fifa Forward Enterprise (FFE) proposal was fundamentally about “the integrity of the game, and the integrity of those elected to lead it”.
FFE would have meant a new company being created to manage commercial and ticketing rights of all Fifa competitions, including the World Cups, with 21% sold off to a private investment company.
It was aborted after widespread criticism from several confederations, led by Uefa which has threatened a boycott of all Fifa competitions.
“When trust is broken through deception, when an individual places himself above the collective that entrusted him with authority, that duty has been abandoned,” the letter read.
It comes after Fifa issued a statement on Saturday evening which strongly criticised a “concerted and ongoing effort” to “undermine” the organisation and Infantino.
The letter called for a review to be “conducted by a fully independent third party” after Fifa committed to present a report to the Fifa Council in October.
