It has been confirmed
in the early morning hours of June 13, 20018 that the 2026 World Cup will be hosted
by the United States, Mexico and Canada. The last time North America hosted the
World Cup was in 1994 and it was solely hosted by the United States. The North
American states were up against Morocco for the bid of the competition, but
they won the vote 134 to 65. “The American federation spent more than $6
million, out of a combined budget of about $8 million, to bring the World Cup
back to North America”, was the amount spent just to bring one tournament that
lasts about 2 months. The board that was selected to get the FIFA on board to
let United States, Canada and Mexico to host also expect and are targeting $11 billion
profit. I do believe it’s an understatement to say it’s going to be a great
2026 summer. The New York Times
