Fifa ordered to explain World Cup ticket pricing | BBC News

Fifa must answer questions after allegations of "artificially inflating prices" and "misleading fans" over the sale of tickets for the 2026 World Cup.

It comes as the attorneys general of New York and New Jersey officially launched an investigation into Fifa's practices.

Fans have reported they were "misled" about the location of seats, including through the creation of more expensive 'front' category tickets released after the initial sales.

The investigation will consider how the ticket release schedule and public statements may have impacted prices.

Fifa has declined to comment.
