The open letter, which is addressed to FIFA President Gianni Infantino, describes FIFA's deal with Aramco as a 'middle finger to women's football,' emphasizing the negative impact of Saudi authorities on human rights and the environment.
This sponsorship is much worse than an own goal for football: FIFA might as well pour oil on the pitch and set it alight, demonstrating the extreme folly of compromising the sport’s integrity for financial gain.
UN Women Germany supports the women footballers' open letter, stating that FIFA's sponsorship of Aramco would undermine the hard-earned progress in women's football and amount to a punch in the gut for women footballers.
The letter acknowledges that Saudi authorities trample on the rights of women and all citizens, highlighting how sports sponsorship is used to distract from their brutal human rights reputation.
