The highest football authority, FIFA, intends to expand the number of participants in the 2030 World Cup.
Details. According to The New York Times, FIFA is considering increasing the number of teams in the World Cup to 64. However, this will be a one-time event dedicated to the centenary of the World Cup.
It is claimed that the organization is likely to be guided by financial and political benefits as much as by sporting ones.
It should be noted that this is not the first increase in the number of teams in the World Cup. Gianni Infantino has already expanded the number of participants from 32 to 48 teams for the 2026 World Cup.
Recall. It was previously announced what the prize fund of the 2025 Club World Cup will be.
