Surprise .. the World Cup every two years by order of FIFA
In an unexpected move, the English Premier League account revealed via Twitter, that the International Football Association informed the international football federations of its desire to hold the World Cup every two years starting in 2026, a decision that is strongly opposed by the two most powerful continental football federations, namely the European Union and the Confederation of South America. .
The association’s account on Twitter said: “FIFA has informed the international federations of its desire to hold the World Cup every two years, starting in 2026. The highest football authority in the world has clarified that the rate of players’ absence from their clubs will be reduced from 50 days a year to 30 days according to the new plan.”
The proposal submitted by Saudi Arabia has met with a lot of controversy during the recent period, as it serves the teams that find it difficult to reach the World Cup, while the European Football Association, the most powerful in the world, with its number of teams in the tournament, rejected the idea, along with the South American Confederation, due to the pressure of matches on players. And the lack of rest at all due to the accumulation of international matches.
