FIFA make major transfer rule change that can save Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham millions

Gianni Infantino has been speaking once more at the Qatar 2022 World Cup, but this time there are just two games left to go. The last time he went public, the FIFA president caused a stir with his monologue about football's politics, this time he explained some of the new formattings to the world game.

The only remaining matches left are Morocco vs Croatia in the third-placed play-off and France vs Argentina in the final on Sunday. However, before attention can be fully turned to that, his latest conference has outlined a new and even busier landscape for football, with a new Club World Cup format adding even more fixtures to the schedule.

Outside of that, Infantino also revealed that he is currently in his first term as president after completing Sep Blatter's final years since his infamous departure in 2016, and explained new plans for an expanded women's Olympics. Outside of the Club World Cup revelation, the next most significant point for domestic teams to take note of is agent policies.
