They'll try to avoid the bad press and go to a more traditional football nation. It'll still be massively corrupt though.

I also believe that UEFA and AFC are both off the table from hosting in Russia and Qatar Montserrat 2026

Maldives 2026. First underwater World Cup. Infantino will go down in the FIFA history books as being completely incompetent.

Yo it's way more than one or even 3 officials implicated in the Garcia report, it's 13 current or former ExCo members (Angel Maria Villar Llona, Michael D'Hooghe, Worawi Makudi, Franz Beckenbauer, Chung Mong-Joon, Amos Adamu, Reynald Temarii, Jack Warner, Richard Texeira, Chuck Blazer, Mohamad Bin Hammam, Nicolas Leoz and Julio Grondona), 5 'consultants' (Andreas Abold, Fedor Radmann, Peter Hargitay, Sandro Rosell and Amadou Diallo), and 3 misc football officials (Harold Mayne-Nicholls, Joe Sim and Guillermo Tofoni), aside from a whole bunch of people on multiple bid teams. Qatar will still keep the world cup anyway though so it doesn't really matter.

I'm worried that this is the direction the sport is going, with this pan-North American WC bid and then the all-Europe Euros coming up. Having a bunch of host nations just doesn't feel right for the big tournaments imho. Then again I guess it's better than Qatar.

I don't think you should be allowed to host a World Cup without previously having qualified for one.
