World Cup 2030 set to take place across six countries on three continents, Saudi Arabia to make 2034 bid - Eurosport

In a never before seen event, the World Cup of 2030 will take place in six diverse nations and on three distinct continents.

The 48-team tournament will take place in Morocco, Portugal, and Spain, with the opening three matches being held in Uruguay, Argentina, and Paraguay.

South America is hosting the opening games to mark the 100th anniversary of the World Cup. Recently, three nations in South America tried to compete with each other as co-hosts. As a result, all six countries that are hosting the event in South America are guaranteed a spot in the 2030 tournament.

The council of FIFA, which speaks for all of football worldwide, has come to a unanimous decision to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the FIFA World Cup. The very first version of this tournament took place in Uruguay during the year 1930, and the council wants to celebrate it in the most fitting way possible.

Therefore, a festivity is slated to occur in South America and three nations from the region - Uruguay, Argentina, and Paraguay - will jointly host a FIFA World Cup 2030 game on their own turf.

The initial match of the three games will be held at the venue where it all started, the Estadio Centenario in Montevideo. This stadium is renowned worldwide, and this particular game will honor the 100th anniversary of the FIFA World Cup.

The council of FIFA has come to a unanimous agreement that there will only be one bid to host the FIFA World Cup 2030, which is the collaborative bid of Morocco, Portugal and Spain.

The celebration of football brought together Africa and Europe, two continents that also shared a special bond in promoting social and cultural unity. The message of peace, acceptance, and inclusiveness was truly remarkable.

The president of FIFA ended his statement by saying that by the year 2030, they will have a special presence in the world, spanning across three different continents - namely Africa, Europe and South America. Six different countries will come together to host and celebrate the World Cup for its hundredth anniversary. The goal is to unite people from across the globe through the love of soccer.

FIFA has announced that only the Asian and Oceania Confederations will be able to bid for the 2034 World Cup.

Saudi Arabia has announced that they will be putting forward their bid to host the 2034 edition of the World Cup. Australia is said to be interested in bidding as well, having already pulled off a successful joint hosting of the Women's World Cup earlier this year.

On Wednesday, Yasser Al Misehal, the president of the Saudi Arabian football federation and also a member of the FIFA Council, stated in a government release that their aim is to acknowledge and honor their football traditions while also revealing the beauty of their nation to the globe.

The 2030 edition of the World Cup is scheduled to transpire during the month of June and July in the year 2030.
