Fifa subpoenaed over World Cup ticket practices in two US states

Sherrill inherited the tournament from her predecessor, Phil Murphy, an avid soccer fan and fellow Democrat.

Though the issues described as being part of the investigation are relevant to all games of the upcoming World Cup, the attorneys general are specifically requesting details about ticketing at MetLife Stadium, which will host eight matches including the 19 July final.

FIFA faces a subpoena from the states of New York and New Jersey as part of an investigation into details surrounding pricing and accuracy of seat locations for the 2026 World Cup.

Both officials took aim at Fifa in public statements, with James focusing on the location of seats.
