A trio of nations are preparing a bid to host the 2030 FIFA World Cup. Saudi Arabia, Greece and Egypt will partner together in an attempt to bring the tournament to their homes, however, it would require the event to take place during the winter months to avoid the high summer heat.

Traditionally, the tournament is played during summer months, but for the 2022 Men’s World Cup, it was moved to November to avoid high heat in Qatar, so it’s not out of the question to do the same for 2030.

A four-nation South American bid for the 2030 World Cup has also been brought forth by the Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, and Paraguay soccer federations. Uruguay hosted the inaugural World Cup in 1930 so the South American bid was presented in hopes that the centenary of the tournament can be celebrated where it all began.
