Member nations back reform plan
The proposal will be put to a vote at next month’s congress, officials said on Friday.
It would change how regional confederations share revenue and how future tournament hosts are chosen.
Several federations raised concerns in August and asked for more time to study the details.
Since then, most member countries have fully endorsed the plan, giving organisers confidence ahead of the meeting.
Critics argue the changes were rushed, but supporters say they will make the organisation more transparent.
A final decision is expected in March, after each region has met.
