Saudi Arabia will host 2034 men’s World CupFA yet to disclose how it will approach vote
The Football Association board has been warned by voices in internal discussions to avoid protesting at Wednesday’s meeting that will confirm Saudi Arabia as host of the 2034 men’s World Cup, unless it is willing to boycott the tournament.
Saudi Arabia will formally win the right to stage the World Cup at a virtual meeting of the 211-member Fifa congress. On Tuesday there remained a lack of clarity about the process, despite Saudi Arabia being the only bidder, with uncertainty among member nations as to whether they will be given a chance to vote or simply to approve the bid by acclamation, a collective round of applause.
