KUALA LUMPUR - FIFA president Gianni Infantino has said his controversial plan to expand the FIFA Club World Cup can play a key role in further developing the club game in Asia despite European opposition.
But the Swiss administrator told the Asian Football Confederation’s annual congress on Saturday that the expansion can help further improve the club game in the 47-member regional body. “That’s why it’s important to continue to develop our competitions, for example, with the new Club World Cup.” Infantino also reiterated his desire to further investigate expanding the 2022 World Cup finals to 48 teams and asking current hosts Qatar to share the tournament with neighbouring nations.
