FIFA is reportedly considering reducing the number of stadiums set to host matches for the 2030 World Cup, jointly organized by Morocco, Spain, and Portugal.
According to Spain’s Cadena SER, FIFA views the current count of 21 stadiums across 20 cities as excessive for the tournament’s scale and may drop two to three venues from the list.
Spanish outlet Infobae suggested that Morocco’s Fez Stadium and Spain’s Riazor in La Coruña and Anoeta in San Sebastián are the most likely candidates for exclusion.
While FIFA has yet to make an official announcement, this potential reduction highlights the logistical and planning challenges it faces to ensure the tournament’s success.
The move may also spark political and economic tensions, as cities vying to host matches have invested heavily in infrastructure upgrades, banking on the tournament’s economic and tourism benefits.
