We consider it very advantageous to visit the country where we are going, if we wish, to compete in the final of the 2022 World Cup and to give us an idea of ​​the situation. In addition, we will be able to play against Finland, which also has its side in Qatar at the same time, "said Stefan Pettersson, head of landscape management.

In collaboration with the camp, SvFF representatives will meet representatives of the World Cup project, the Qatar Football Federation and international organizations in a Nordic delegation. Having the World Cup in Qatar has been criticized for the lack of human rights in the country and thousands of guest workers have died as part of the construction of arenas.

SvFF writes that there will be "critical discussions" about the conditions of the guest workers and that the delegation should inspect several arenas.

We must be realistic and understand that it is highly unlikely that the 2022 World Cup will be played anywhere other than in Qatar. Given this fact, we feel that it is our duty to reiterate the obvious requirement that the guest work force in the country – used to build the World Cup stadium – must guarantee reasonable working conditions. Everything else is unacceptable, says Håkan Sjöstrand, SvFF General Secretary.
