Javier Tebas, the president of Spain’s top professional soccer league, La Liga, criticized a potential 64-team World Cup and said he believes FIFA president Gianni Infantino should resign. Criticism hovered around the 2026 tournament, hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico, with complaints about visa issues, ticket pricing, hydration breaks and political intervention by Twitler. Tebas cited the 2026 World Cup hydration breaks, which he said “are a lie” and a “break for advertising”. He also criticized overturning the red card suspension of United States striker Folarin Balogun, which came after a discussion between Twitler and Infantino.
