The world’s leading football nations must quit FIFA en masse after the World Cup and demand wholesale changes within the global game’s governing body before they consider returning.
That’s the verdict of Stan Collymore, who insists drastic measures are needed after all the issues we have seen in the past week and, indeed, in the 12 years since Qatar was awarded the tournament.
The former Liverpool, Nottingham Forest and England star turned Mirror Sport columnist said: “Once the tournament is over we really need to have a think about short-circuiting FIFA and the corruption and the juggernaut that it is. When you can see there is corruption within a government, then every four years you get an opportunity to vote them out.
