Uncertainty in selecting host cities for the 2030 World Cup raises concerns
Trust in the organization of the 2030 World Cup has been seriously undermined following document leaks and a lack of clarity regarding the selection of host cities. Some candidates, such as San Sebastián and Vigo, have yet to be officially confirmed, raising concerns among football officials.
FIFA reserves the right to change decisions regarding host cities even after the project has been approved. In the coming weeks, an additional inspection of stadiums and cities will be conducted to avoid mistakes and uncertainties.
The situation has intensified following a series of scandals, including the Civil Guard's interference in the Spanish national team and political conflicts within the Federation. These events, along with the recent leak of information about the possible exclusion of the "Metropolitano" stadium from the list of candidates, cast doubt on the stability of the tournament's organization.
FIFA may intervene and alter the list of cities if deemed necessary, leaving the future of the 2030 World Cup in jeopardy.
