The FIFA Management Board held a constructive meeting on Wednesday in Morocco’s capital Rabat to discuss issues that the game of football faces currently.
The meeting was attended by FIFA President Gianni Infantino and Secretary General Mattias Grafström with key emphasis on the controversial FIFA Forward Enterprise proposal.
It was acknowledged that mistakes were made and it was not the intention for the FIFA Council and FIFA Member Associations to feel excluded from the process and that the process should have been handled differently. It was further acknowledged that errors were also made after the proposal was leaked to media.
The proposal had for now been totally withdrawn and dropped.
Despite these challenges the FIFA Management Board reaffirmed its support to Infantino as the sole candidate ahead of the elections in March next year.
