Saudi Arabia on course to host 2034 FIFA World Cup

Saudi Arabia is set to host the 2034 World Cup after Australia - who were seen as the only serious potential challenger - said it will not bid

A FIFA Congress of the 211 football nations will confirm the hosts later in 2024.

We all remember Al Owairan's iconic goal. What a Legendary moment! 🎉

Disgusting corruption, Fifa still a disgrace!

[Williamsweden]

Fifa proving time after time that all they care about is their wallets, not football!

[unamiko]

Saudi Arabia was the only football association to present a bid to host the 2034 FIFA World Cup before the deadline closed.

[awd]

So…Saudi’s hosting 2027 Asian Cup, 2029 Winter Asian Game, 2034 World Cup and 2034 Asian Game?? Is that even fair..?

[hisholiness]

That is a good news to Saudi Arabia, it will sell its good name to the world

[PAB]

Saudi is gunna be the new sports venue of the world, big boxing events, big footballing stars.

[unamiko]

Australia’s decision to not proceed with 2034 leaves Saudi Arabia as the only confirmed bidder, which makes Saudi Arabia officially hosting the 2034 FIFA World Cup.

[فيصلالريمي-عط]

It’s win to football and World Cup to be hosted by Saudi … I am sure they will be well spend to provide best experience for fans

[boringlyawesum]

next women's world cup is 4 years away and without a host yet, says it all really.

[GIBBO]

Today I’m feeling Saudi Arabian

Infantino is as bad as Blatter!

[NoWindNoSunNoPower]

I’ll drink to that. Oh. Hang on a minute……..

[ByddinRhyddidCymru]

Fifa needs to be shut down, evil places like the USA and Saudi Arabia should never have the right to host what was once a prestigious event

[unamiko]

The International Federation of Association Football (FIFA) declared Saudi Arabia as the sole bidder for the 2034 World Cup during the annual ceremony of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) in Doha.

[Suarez]

Jules Rimet would be ROLLING in his grave by that time.

[luislourenco]

A few years ago there was a world cup in russia, wasn't it?

[ladydiana]

They should host because of human rights

[TZplayer]

Absolute joke, but cash will change hands

[Robert.David.]

they should make it policy that NO fifa official is allowed to socialize with anyone connected with national football organizations
regarding the WC...stop the payoffs, bribery and favouritism for good ....
they should have to decide on only the presentations and packages put forward ....

[darjuz]

We know that despite all the WC will be followed in any case, independently how they win the bid. As the romans said panem et circensis the other thing doesn't matter.
