Louis van Gaal has criticized FIFA for her "ridiculous" decision to entrust Qatar to the World Cup 2022. According to the Dutch National Trainer, money and commercial interests have been the real reasons for the award of the rights.
"We play around how the FIFA says to develop football on site. That's Bullshit, which does not matter at all. It's about money and commercial interests," said Van Gaal on Monday.
In December 2010, FIFA announced that the World Cup finals would take place in Qatar 2022, as a result, numerous athletes and fans were indignant. Reports about thousands of guest workers who have been took care of the construction of the stadiums, or human rights violations in the country did not move the FIFA to rethink the decision again.
"What do you think about why I'm not represented with my expertise in FIFA or UEFA? Because I have always been against this type of organizations," Van Gaal said clearly. But he also looked at his powerlessness: "I can say that again later in Qatar, but that will not help the world get rid of this problem."
