We study the participation of the Gulf countries in the organization of the "Qatar World Cup"

In doubt as to the ability of the Doha system to accommodate a large number of fans

FIFA President Gianni Infantino said FIFA was considering the possibility of extending the 2022 World Cup in Qatar to 48 teams.

At a sports conference, he added that FIFA was also considering how the Gulf States could help Qatar to host some matches.

In November, the FIFA President reiterated his concerns about Qatar's ability to host the 2022 World Cup, saying it would be "very happy to have matches in some countries in the region."

At the same time, he said the odds of bringing to 48 the number of teams participating in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar were a "difficult challenge". He said the International Federation would make the decision in March (date of the next FIFA meeting in Miami, USA).

In recent months, the South American Confederation has proposed to apply this increase at the next World Cup in Qatar, which has been the subject of recent research between the parties concerned and which is clearly supported by the Swiss President of the International Federation.

I think bringing the number of teams in the World Cup to 48 is good for football, that's why we are doing it for the World Cup in 2026, "he said in an interview with the media. at the headquarters of the International Federation in Zurich, Switzerland.

"Can we do it from 2022? It's a tough challenge and we have to make a decision in March (date of the next FIFA meeting in Miami)," he said. Personally, as FIFA President, I would be very happy if matches can be held in some countries in the region. "

But the plans of the FIFA president, which he wants to implement in 2022, go against the fact that Qatar is small and unable to absorb an event of this size, like the reveal the confessions of Qatari officials regarding the project to welcome the supporters.

According to Sky News, despite the impressive picture of Qatar's preparations for the World Cup, the reality on the ground seems to be different, while the Doha system could accommodate a large number of spectators between 21 November and 18 December 2022.

Qatar's largest hotelier, Katara, recently announced the installation of 20,000 hotel rooms on cruise ships in the Gulf to accommodate tens of thousands of visitors.

Worse still, the plan also provides for the construction of tents in desert areas near stadiums to host the World Cup.

This seems to have prompted other countries to join Qatar to host the 2022 World Cup, when he said: "We need to see if this is possible and achievable." We are looking at the Qataris and our other friends from the region, and we hope that will happen. "
