Matt Frei is joined by Infantino's former boss, former UEFA chief Lars-Christer Olsson to react to the ongoing FIFA scandal. FIFA have staged a colossal u-turn overnight, as the governing body abandoned its controversial plan to sell off a 20 per cent stake in its competitions, including the World Cup, to private investors. Recent days have seen an open revolt by football governing bodies around the world, with fans, officials and heads of state - including Prime Minister Andy Burnham - weighing in on the decision. Matt is also joined by former COO of the Confederation of African Football  Abi Ijasanmi to react to the ongoing row.
