⚠️The Athletic drops a bombshell: FIFA plans a 64-team World Cup!For the 2030 edition, FIFA will examine the option of adding 16 more national teams, something that would once again break the mold.While this World Cup is already historic for being the longest in history and featuring the highest number of national teams ever seen, FIFA is now planning to go one step further.

According to The Athletic, Infantino reportedly said that expanding the World Cup to a total of 64 teams for the next edition in 2030 will be examined.It is worth remembering that in four years, the World Cup will be held across six different host locations. Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay will each play their first match at home, while the rest of the tournament will take place in Portugal, Spain, and Morocco.
