A recent splashing of cash by clubs on players may have tapped the attention of Federation of International Football Association (FIFA) and as a consequence the world football governing body is planning to bring rules that will regulate the expenditure.

While speaking to the Italian press in his home country, FIFA President Gianni Infantino discussed various areas he is eyeing for restructuring to minimize the expenditure in sports, which he says has eroded the football values.
