Concacaf Statement Regarding the Proposed FIFA Forward Enterprise

"Concacaf was only made aware of this matter through media reports and, subsequently, via a media release.

We are deeply concerned by the lack of due process.

We share the disappointment of many within our region and the game that this level of detail has been designed and shared publicly before any discussion with the relevant governance bodies and stakeholders has taken place.

As leaders within football, we are the custodians of the game. Collectively, FIFA, the Confederations and every Member Association have a responsibility to always act in the best interests of the sport. Every decision we make must be guided by good governance, robust processes and long-term stewardship.

This is the framework within which Concacaf operates. We trust that all within the FIFA family will act in the same manner.”
