Infantino’s justification
Gianni Infantino, president of FIFA, has been at the center of criticism for leading the organization of the tournament. The manager considers the value of the tickets fair when justifying the investment of a “double entertainment” event. Infantino refers to the soccer match and the shows that followed.
“We have to analyze the market. We are in a market where entertainment is the most developed in the worldso we must apply market prices,” Infantino said at the Milken Institute Global Conference in Beverly Hills, California.
Furthermore, Gianni Infantino spoke on the topic of ticket resale in the United States. In his opinion, with a high ticket price, resellers will have more obstacles to inflate their prices in exorbitant amounts.
“In the United States, the resale of tickets is also allowed, So if they were sold too low, they would be resold at a much higher price. In fact, although some say that our prices are high, on the resale market they end up at an even higher price, more than double the usual price,” he added.
