Saudi Arabia has been selected as the sole bidder to host the 2034 FIFA World Cup, receiving the highest evaluation score in the history of the event with 419.8 out of 500 points. The bid was assessed by FIFA, which deemed it a 'medium risk' on human rights issues, expressing hopes for future reforms to address these concerns. The evaluation also noted that the timing of the tournament remains undecided, factoring in considerations like extreme heat and religious observances such as Ramadan and Hajj. The bid's approval is set for ratification by FIFA members on December 11, 2024.
