Which all groups are bidding for FIFA World Cup’s hosting rights in 2030?
FIFA World Cup 2030
The eagerly anticipated and esteemed FIFA World Cup 2022 is due to get underway in Qatar on November 18. The fact that the game will take place in an Arab nation just adds to the excitement among football fans worldwide for the impending encounter. Here, we examine the nations that are vying to host the FIFA World Cup in 2030.
The host is chosen in great advance of the games that are played. The FIFA World Cup host selection for 2018 and 2022 was completed in 2009, while the host selection for 2030 and subsequent tournaments is now underway. Recent reports state that Portugal, Spain, and Ukraine together have hosting rights.
The Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) and the Portuguese Football Federation made official announcements and releases about their collaboration (PFP). The announcement was made at a press conference held at the UEFA headquarters in Switzerland, which is the recognised governing organisation for soccer in Europe.
The confirmed decision has not yet been made, and the FIFA Congress in 2024 is expected to disclose the confirmations. According to other reports, there will be up to 48 teams by that time, up from this year’s 32 teams. The addition of 16 teams is a significant development, and the necessary adjustments should be made.
South American nations taking a hand over the FIFA World Cup 2030
The United States, Canada, and Mexico will compete for the 2026 FIFA World Cup in trios. According to reports, 48 teams will compete in that World Cup, making it the first to do so. Germany is slated to host the 2024 European Championships, and the 2028 host country has not yet been chosen.
There are credible rumors that the four largest South American nations—Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, and Paraguay—are intending to submit a joint four-country bid to host the World Cup once more. The most recent World Cup to take place in South America was in Brazil in 2014.
Arab participation in bidding
Also anticipated is a three-country effort from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Morocco. The fact that none of the teams have ever hosted a World Cup is unexpected. Israel, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates make a second offer. Over the past 60 years, the Asia Cup has been held in the United Arab Emirates and Israel.
The Qatar World Cup is the first one to be held in an Arab nation, and other Arab nations’ chances of being selected as hosts will rely on the outcome of this World Cup. Regarding their laws and regulations, the Qatari regulating body was subject to a great deal of criticism, and everyone is debating if this will hurt the spirit of the game.
