FIFA May Revoke World Cup Hosting Rights from United States
Sport Bible reports that the International Football Federation (FIFA) can potentially revoke the United States' World Cup hosting rights following concerns about the country's political situation. The political environment under President Donald Trump has prompted many to express concerns about the United States' role as one of the 2026 World Cup hosts, alongside Canada and Mexico. FIFA has the authority to cancel, postpone, or relocate one or more matches (or the entire 2026 World Cup) at its discretion, including due to force majeure, health, safety, or security concerns. While technically possible to revoke hosting rights, the proximity to the tournament's start date on July 11th makes such a move highly unlikely.
