The deal with FIFA fell through before the Saudi takeover was on the cards, and, AFAIK, they haven’t finalized the takeover yet.
In theory, now that this news is out, they could still ask FIFA to wait and not sign with Netflix now on the promise they’ll pay more later, who knows.
Kinda like how Paramount tried to fuck over Netflix in the Warner Bros. deal.
Wait… I thought FIFA was in bed with the Saudis… Do the Saudis that control FIFA hate the Saudis that just bought EA??
