Uli Hoeneß may approve of a cooperation with Qatar, but as is well known, the honorary president of FC Bayern is not a fan of FIFA or the DFB. After the "One Love" disgrace at the World Cup, the "Attack Department" now dealt powerfully.

As is well known, when Uli Hoeneß speaks these days, there is a bang. The honorary president of Munich spoke to RTL about FIFA's ban on binding and did not leave a good hair to its president, Gianni Infantino FIFA applies.

However, Hoeneß not only targeted Infantino, but also the DFB. The German Football Association had recently cuddled before FIFA and, after threats of sporting sanctions, made the decision not to wear the "One Love" armband. According to Hoeneß, despite Infantino's pressure with the bandage, "it would have been a wonderful opportunity to show him: up to here and no further." But as it is, the DFB is a big loser. According to Hoeneß, the association lacked the courage "to stand up to FIFA". However, this would have been "urgently necessary". Overall, Hoeneß accuses all European associations of discouragement: for years there was enough time to address things and exercise the appropriate power. I don't think the European federations have realized the power they really have."

In addition, Hoeneß is not a fan of the World Cup anyway, as it has been going on so far. "The World Cup, as it is currently presented, will definitely not be a success, that's already clear, and it will definitely damage football as a whole," said the 70-year-old. Hoeneß continues: "If you look at the ratings, if you see people's enthusiasm for this World Cup, the damage is already visible."
