Fifa is set to propose a substantial increase in the funding it provides for football development around the world, with an additional $3.4bn — approximately £2.6bn — expected to be put forward.
The proposed increase would add to the money distributed by football’s global governing body for development purposes. The available information does not specify how the additional funding would be allocated, which programmes would benefit or when the proposal would be considered.
The plan remains a proposal at this stage. Further details about its approval, implementation and potential impact on football development worldwide have not been provided.
