Summary
According to Xinhua News Agency, at a meeting in Rabat, Morocco on August 5, FIFA formally apologized for the controversial business proposal involving FIFA Forward Enterprises (FFE). The meeting acknowledged that the proposal made FIFA's Council and member associations feel excluded from the process, and that the proposal was mishandled after being leaked to the media. FIFA has sent individual apology letters, committed to ensuring such situations do not happen again, and will conduct a review and submit a report at the next meeting. On background, the FFE proposal was unveiled on July 28, planning to establish a company to operate commercial rights for events such as the World Cup and sell part of its equity. It met strong opposition from regional confederations including UEFA and the AFC. UEFA even threatened that its teams would boycott FIFA events; on August 1, FIFA President Gianni Infantino announced the proposal was dropped.

5日，国际足联就“国际足联前进公司（FFE）”商业提案致歉，承诺确保此类情况不再发生。
国际足联在摩洛哥拉巴特的会议讨论了FFE提案，承认其中存在失误。会议认为，无意让国际足联理事会和会员协会感到被排除在流程之外，且该流程本应采取不同的处理方式。会议进一步承认，在提案被泄露给媒体后也存在处理不当之处。
在分别致国际足联理事会和会员协会的信函中，国际足联已就这些失误致歉，承诺确保此类情况不再发生，并将开展一次审查，审查报告将在下一次既定会议上提交国际足联理事会。国际足联将以此为鉴，持续改进自身流程。
7月28日，国际足联公布提案，计划成立FFE公司，负责运营世界杯等国际足联主要赛事的商业权益，并向外部投资者出售该公司部分股权。
该提案一经公布便引发足球界的广泛质疑。欧足联、北中美及加勒比地区足联和亚足联明确表示反对。欧足联更威胁称，在该提案废除前，其旗下所有球队将不再参加包括世界杯在内的任何国际足联赛事。7月31日，国际足联一度宣布将继续推进该提案。但随后南美足联也发表声明，要求国际足联就FFE提案作出澄清。8月1日，国际足联主席因凡蒂诺宣布放弃该提案。
