Spain, Portugal and Morocco have been named as the co-hosts, with the opening three matches taking place in Uruguay, Argentina and Paraguay. The opening matches in South America are to mark the World Cup's centenary as it will be 100 years since the inaugural tournament in Montevideo. The decision is set to be ratified at a Fifa congress next year. Fifa also confirmed only bids from countries from the Asian Football Confederation and the Oceania Football Confederation will be considered for the 2034 finals. Following that decision, Saudi Arabia announced it would be bidding to host the tournament in 2034 for the first time. Fifa's decision to host the tournament across multiple continents has drawn criticism, with one supporter's body accusing football's world governing body of engaging in a "cycle of destruction against the greatest tournament on Earth". "[It's] horrendous for supporters, disregards the environment and rolls the red carpet out to a host for 2034 with an appalling human rights record. It's the end of the World Cup as we know it," said Football Supporters Europe. Fifa president Gianni Infantino said: "In a divided world, Fifa and football are uniting "The Fifa Council, representing the entire world of football, unanimously agreed to celebrate the centenary of the Fifa World Cup, whose first edition was played in Uruguay in 1930, in the most appropriate way. "In 2030, we will have a unique global footprint, three continents - Africa, Europe and South America - six countries - Argentina, Morocco, Paraguay, Portugal, Spain and Uruguay - welcoming and uniting the world while celebrating together the beautiful game, the centenary and the Fifa World Cup." Montevideo in Uruguay, the city which hosted the first World Cup match in 1930, is poised to stage the opening game in 2030 with matches in Argentina and Paraguay to follow. The rest of the 48-team tournament will then move to north Africa and Europe. If the 2030 proposal is approved, Morocco would become only the second African nation to host a World Cup, after South Africa in 2010. Spain has been named as joint-host weeks after former football federation chief Luis Rubiales resigned following criticism for kissing Jenni Hermoso at the Women's World Cup. Appearing in court, Rubiales was given a restraining order by a Spanish judge, but denied sexually assaulting Hermoso. Spain last hosted the World Cup in 1982, with Italy winning the tournament for the third time. Portugal has never hosted the tournament, but Euro 2004 was held there. As in previous World Cups, Uruguay, Argentina, Paraguay, Spain, Portugal and Morocco will all qualify automatically as co-hosts. World Cup 2026: Could climate crisis impact the men's tournament? Qatar World Cup: Fifa's carbon neutrality claim 'misleading and incredibly dangerous' Saudi bid 'natural step for country passionate about football' Saudi Arabia's decision to bid for the 2034 World Cup is in line with its initiative to become a global leader in sport after hosting a number of events in the country since 2018, involving football, Formula 1, golf and boxing. But the Gulf kingdom has been accused of investing in sport and using high-profile events to improve its international reputation - a process known as sportswashing. In a recent interview with Fox News, Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said he does not care about the accusations. "If sportswashing is going to increase my GDP by 1%, then we'll continue doing sportswashing," Bin Salman said. Prince Abdulaziz bin Turki bin Faisal, Saudi Arabia's Olympic and Paralympic chief, says the World Cup bid "constitutes an important and natural step in our journey as a country passionate about football". Fifa follows Uefa in readmitting Russia to under-17 competitions Fifa also announced Russia will be readmitted to its under-17 competitions for the first time since the country's invasion of Ukraine 19 months ago. The move follows Uefa's decision last week to allow Russian sides to compete at U17 level in European competitions after they were suspended when the invasion began in February 2022. Fifa said the decision will be conditional on teams playing as the "Football Union of Russia" rather than Russia, without the country's flag or anthem, and wearing a neutral kit. Uefa's move drew criticism from the English Football Association which said it "did not support" the decision, adding "our position remains that England teams won't play against Russia". But Uefa said boys and girls should not be punished for the actions of adults, adding in a statement: "Football should never give up sending messages of peace and hope."

Have you heard about the Chelsea wonderkid who is already breaking records, but won't make his Blues debut for more than another 18 months? At 16 years and 161 days old, Kendry Paez became the youngest ever South American to score in a World Cup qualifier when he bagged Ecuador's opener in a 2-1 win away to Bolivia on Thursday. He was sent through by Chelsea midfielder Moises Caciedo, driving goalwards before curling the ball low into the far corner. It was a measured finish, on his second ever start for his country, which adds yet another age-related record to Paez's ever-growing list. The teenager is already the youngest appearance maker and scorer in the Ecuadorian top flight, netting on his debut aged just 15. He also holds the record for being the youngest ever scorer at the Fifa under-20 World Cup, aged 16, and captained Ecuador to the final of the South American U17 Championship this year. With Paez clearly oozing potential, why is he unable to make his Chelsea debut? Well, back in June, the teenage midfielder agreed to sign for the club from Ecuadorian side Independiente del Valle in a deal worth a reported £17.2m. But he will only be able to move to the Premier League club on his 18th birthday, meaning the earliest Paez could make his first Blues appearance is 7 May 2025. While he waits, the midfielder and occasional winger is currently still playing - and impressing - for both Independiente and Ecuador. 👍 Fernando, Clockwork and guddy69 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwork 1,794 Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Paez is insane talent, absolutely amazing the maturity he plays with at that age. Maybe one of the most exciting players we have signed at that age. Fernando and Fulham Broadway 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHulk 2,447 Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 That Paez kid is exciting indeed, curious how he develops. Hope by the time he comes here he will be a well established international. Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KEVINAA 129 Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 The only way Gareth Southgate gets sacked if England concedes at least 5+ goals in a game for the pressure of the English FA being forced to sack him or it shows they accept mediocrity.
