Dec 11, 2024, 01:59 PM
FIFA is set to officially announce Saudi Arabia as the host of the 2034 men’s World Cup during its Congress meeting, marking a significant achievement for the country driven by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's ambition to elevate its global sports profile. The English Football Association (FA) has decided to support both the 2030 and 2034 bids, despite the controversial nature of the latter due to human rights concerns raised by various organizations. The FA's support for the Saudi bid is part of a broader trend, with the Football Association of Wales also backing the 2034 bid. The 2030 World Cup will be hosted by Morocco, Spain, and Portugal, with Uruguay, Argentina, and Paraguay hosting celebratory games.
