The European Clubs Association (ECA) has said it is boycotting talks on Monday with FIFA over the international calendar, saying progress with world football's governing body has been "disappointing."
Expressing surprise at the move, FIFA retorted that ECA members had missed previous meetings with FIFA committees "making it very difficult for progress to be made in discussions with the European clubs."
"I am confident that, despite the recent tensions between the ECA and FIFA, the FIFA president [Sepp Blatter] will find a solution that represents a win-win situation for all concerned," Platini said in a statement.
"His experience and determination to reach a compromise that satisfies everyone will enable the best interests of football to be safeguarded. It is through dialogue and unity that we will achieve this objective."
"I am very satisfied with the outcome of these long months of negotiation," Platini said.
"This new Memorandum of Understanding will be presented to the UEFA Congress on March 22 and I have no doubt that, with the consent of the 53 UEFA member associations, it will enable European football to develop in an atmosphere of calm, as it has over the past five years."
"Some parts of the agreement are, however, still pending as they fall under the exclusive, legitimate responsibility of FIFA, the governing body of world football. One such pending item is the international match calendar," he said.
