  • FIFA named the hosts for the 2030 and 2034 World Cups on Wednesday with Spain, Portugal and Morocco getting the former edition and Saudi Arabia controversially landing the latter. There is minimal surprise at the outcome given that the two decisions have been considered a foregone conclusion since there was only one single candidate for each event.

The FIFA World Cup has assigned the 2034 tournament to Saudi Arabia, following a decision influenced by the geopolitical landscape and FIFA's strategic interests. This decision came after Saudi Arabia was the only country to submit an official bid for 2034, with Australia withdrawing its interest due to the tight timeline for bidding. Meanwhile, Spain, Portugal, and Morocco will co-host the 2030 World Cup, with the unique addition of opening matches in Uruguay, Argentina, and Paraguay to celebrate the tournament's centennial. This arrangement reflects FIFA's ongoing efforts to expand the World Cup's global footprint and navigate the complexities of international sports politics.
