Max Eberl calls the World Cup “complete nonsense” every two years

Sports director Max Eberl has clearly criticized FIFA’s plans for a soccer World Cup every two years.

“I think the idea is completely wrong. I think it’s complete nonsense to discuss such topics at such a time,” said the creator of Borussia Mönchengladbach on Friday.

Rather, football must be careful not to become too “inflationary”. “Football is already very present today. More presence does not lead to more interest, but rather to disinterest,” said Eberl.

Gladbach coach Adi Hütter also pointed out that even more stakes for the players “are almost impossible to do because of the strain.” It’s always about the health of professionals.
