2038 World Cup

The president of the French Football Federation (FFF), Philippe Diallo, confirmed in Ouest-France that France intends to host the World Cup in 2038. He said the country will have to team up with other nations to meet the new requirements that come with the growing number of participating teams.

Technical details

To host such an event, at least sixteen large stadiums would be needed. France currently has six that measure up (Stade de France, Vélodrome, Parc OL, Pierre-Mauroy, Parc des Princes and Stade Atlantique). In Belgium, only Club Bruges' future stadium will be ready by 2029.
