World governing body
FIFA has announced that the 2022 World Cup in Qatar will take place between November
21st and December 18th, Report fifa.com
The FIFA World Cup has
always been hosted from June till July, when all the European football league
season ends, but this time it’ll be in the run up to Christmas.
“Leagues around the
world have been informed already, and of course they will have to adapt,”
Gianni Infantino said at a Press conference on Friday.
“The World Cup in 2022
will be played from November 21 to December 18: the idea is to involve 48
teams.”
“We have agreements
and a contract with Qatar, but it’s still too early to know if there will be 32
teams or more.”
“For now, anything is
possible. With 48 teams, many ‘regional’ tensions would be solved so I don’t
want to close the door to this opportunity.”
