World Cup sensation, will Morocco host World Cup matches soon? In any case, this is the hope of the Kingdom. King Mohammed VI announced on Tuesday that Morocco is joining the candidacies of Spain and Portugal to host the 2030 FIFA World Cup. Spain and Portugal were already to be joined by a third country. Last autumn, two nations associated Ukraine with this common candidacy. This statement from Morocco suggests that the country invaded by Russia is now excluded from the project.
“I announce before your assembly that the Kingdom of Morocco has decided, together with Spain and Portugal, to submit a joint candidature to host the 2030 FIFA World Cup.”– said the Sovereign, without mentioning Ukraine, in a message read by his Minister of Sports Chakib Benmoussa on the occasion of the presentation of the 2022 African Football Confederation Award for Excellence in Kigali (Rwanda).
Verdict in 2024
“The meeting between the Spanish Football Federation and the Portuguese Football Federation with the Moroccan Federation will take place tomorrow (Wednesday) in Rwanda during the FIFA Congress.”simply indicated the Spanish authority questioned by AFP. “Presidents will report to Kigali any news regarding the candidacy for the 2030 World Cup”she added.

But the competition will be fierce. The FIFA World Cup will celebrate its centenary in 2030, a century after the first tournament hosted and won by Uruguay, which filed its joint candidacy with Argentina, Paraguay and Chile. A five-time unsuccessful candidate to host the competition (in 1994, 1998, 2006, 2010 and 2026), Morocco hopes to become the second country on the continent, after South Africa in 2010, to host one of the most important events on the planet. FIFA will determine the host countries in 2024.
