Fifa offers council members access to documents on abandoned World Cup privatisation plan

Fifa has offered council members in-person access to documents on the abandoned World Cup privatisation proposal, hours before Uefa's deadline for answers passed.

• Fifa secretary general Mattias Grafstrom wrote to council members, offering in-person access to "key documents" on the failed privatisation plan in Zurich.
• Uefa secretary general Theodore Theodoridis demanded on Oct 19 that Fifa answer 42 areas of questions by Nov 2, including on the privatisation plan.
• Infantino apologised for abandoning the sell-off at an Oct 15 council meeting but gave no full explanation of how the proposal was devised.
• Uefa has pledged to field an alternative candidate against Infantino in Fifa's March presidential election, with candidacy submissions due Nov 18.
