In 2030, games will be played in 6 different countries across 3 continents. The official host countries will be Spain, Portugal, and Morocco. Since it is also the centennial year of the competition, 3 games will also be played in 3 South American countries as well, Uruguay, Paraguay, and Argentina (the first World Cup in 1930 was hosted in Montevideo, Uruguay).
In 2034 the host country will be Saudi Arabia. All venues under consideration are in Saudi Arabia.
As far as I've read, there is a requirement for venues in the final to be above 80,000 spectators, and Santiago Bernabéu (barely) meets that amount. However, it's true that both the Camp Nou in Barcelona and the projected Hassan II stadium in Casablanca will have a bigger capacity. This shouldn't be an issue, but who knows... Morocco will definitely try to play their cards to convince FIFA.
This means, the USA, Canada, Mexico competition in 2026 invalidates North/Central America until 2038. Africa, South America and Europe are checked off by 2030 so cannot again host until 2042. This mean the only confederations eligible for 2034 are the Asia and Oceania. Effectively meaning a straight shot for Saudi Arabia (Australia could have bid, although they are also considered Asian in terms of football).
Absolute masterclass by corrupt FIFA officials.
My father worked in Saudi. He must've been one of few white collar Indians in the 90s & 00s, in contrast to vast majority who are slaves in all but name.
He said they'd be crammed up to 60 to a bus with no aircon, have rooms marginally bigger than closets, etc. etc. Suffice it to say, he didn't like Saudi much, even preferring Libya over it
