"The new FIFA protocol would see games considered if 'all major shareholders agreed' with FIFA then having the final decision. Under the new protocol, the FIGC, the confederation and then the FA of the host country would have to agree, then it would be passed to FIFA."
"Though it is unlikely that they wouldn't be consulted, Serie A, again in this case, would have no say in the matter. The idea internally at FIFA is to have the protocol in place for next season."
AC Milan's anticipated match against Como in Australia was canceled due to scheduling conflicts and opposition from the Asian Football Confederation. Despite initial support from most parties, the plans were ultimately scrapped. New FIFA proposals suggest that domestic leagues could stage one game per season in a foreign country, contingent on agreement from all major stakeholders. The protocol would require approval from the FIGC, the confederation, and the host country's FA, with FIFA having the final say. Serie A's input is unlikely to be disregarded.
