- Men’s and women’s tournaments could become biennial
- Gianni Infantino says study will be made with open mind

Although a study does not guarantee the changes will be implemented, it will be seen by many as the latest action in a global struggle for control over the football calendar and likely to have a severe impact on regional tournaments such as the European Championship.
