When Blick asked Nati coach Murat Yakin about FIFA’s World Cup plans, he said: “I think you have to move away from traditions. You need new ideas – and you have to be creative.” That is why he is not in a position to respond critically to the decision taken by the FIFA Council on Wednesday. “The right considerations have certainly been made.”
The Nati coach remembers the 2021 European Championship, which was held in eleven different countries. The national team in particular – then coached by Vladimir Petkovic – suffered from the sometimes long distances between locations, as they played twice in Baku and once each in Rome, Bucharest and Saint Petersburg. “The trips are certainly not to be underestimated,” says Yakin. This requires good planning.
It is still unclear whether the SFV, as one of FIFA’s 211 affiliated associations, will support the application. Only in May 2024 will the general meeting at the FIFA Congress in Bangkok decide whether the World Cup will actually take place in the six planned countries. “We will discuss the pros and cons in the central board and then decide on our position,” said SFV media director Adrian Arnold.
There is a threat of a World Cup in Saudi Arabia in 2034
The planned World Cup price is also explosive when it comes to the location for the 2034 World Cup. “And the winner is Saudi Arabia,” wrote the ARD when it became known shortly after the decision of the FIFA Council that Saudi Arabia was interested in organizing the event. will apply to the 2034 World Cup. Many experts fear that the World Cup will be held twelve years later in Qatar 2022 in a country where human rights are being violated.
The association also wants to take this into account when making its decision. “We will make an overall assessment that takes these and other criteria into account,” says Arnold. It is now up to the SFV to obtain FIFA’s thoughts and any background information in order to properly address the issue.
