🚨 SPORTSWASH ALERT 🚨

Fifa has partnered with the biggest oil firm on earth to 'create impactful social initiatives around the world' 🤔

#NoFootballOnADeadPlanet

Whatever soul FIFA had left, it's just sold the final drop to Aramco.

Football has just become the ultimate #Greenwash & #Sportwash platform😥

What a difference 2 years makes. Dan Roan nails it.

Shared my thoughts with Felix for this piece 👇

.Tessel Middag on the FIFA - Saudi Aramco deal: “I’m outraged by the idea that football players will be forced to promote one of the world’s biggest polluters.

Rather than divesting, footballs relationship to fossil fuels gets closer & closer! The language here points towards the reputational advantages Aramco gets as football’s governing body refers to the world’s biggest oil company as an “intergrated energy” company 1/1 🧵

So @FIFA expects young football stars to advertise for the world's biggest polluter? It's unacceptable.
