Fifa President Gianni Infantino has decided not to sell parts of the World Cup to investors. Fifa is the organization that runs world football and the World Cup. They thought selling parts of the World Cup could help grow the game and bring in more money. But many countries that play in the tournament didn't like the idea. They thought investors would have too much control over the game. Some countries even said they wouldn't play in the World Cup if the plan happened. Last week, Infantino said he would give each of Fifa's 211 member countries $30 million if they agreed to let investors help with the tournaments. But football teams in Europe, including England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, said they wouldn't play if the plan went ahead. They think the World Cup is special and shouldn't be sold to investors. Other countries also disagreed with the plan. Now, Infantino says the plan won't happen because it was causing problems.
