USA-led 2026 World Cup bid reportedly in jeopardy; Sunil Gulati responds
The US is not participating in the World Cup to be held in Russian Federation this summer and the fans are eagerly waiting for the country to get the hosting rights for 2026.
You need 104 votes out of the 207 member nations other than the four nations up for consideration to cast a vote in your favor in order to win.
The U.S. -led bid to host the 2026 World Cup could be in peril thanks in part to concerns overseas stemming from some of President TrumpDonald John TrumpAccuser says Trump should be afraid of the truth Woman behind pro-Trump Facebook page denies being influenced by Russians Shulkin says he has White House approval to root out "subversion" at VA MORE's policies and comments, according to ESPN.
After all, public perception among many in the soccer world has always been that the joint bid from the United States, Canada and Mexico would fairly easily beat the one from Morocco - a North African country with a population of about 33 million - to host.
Losing out would be hard to stomach for the North American contingent.
It was anticipated earlier that Morocco won't be a match against the North American continent.

The flowing roof creates quite an attractive look but would seem to limit headroom for anyone sitting in the back. The lack of fender vents, desing of the wheels and body panels, nothing at all indicates the full-on M treatment.
The dynamics of how Federation Internationale de Football Association chooses a World Cup host nation have changed dramatically since the last time the US bid. Those actions include a travel ban affecting mostly Arab countries, public comments that perpetuate stereotypes and the reported use of profanity in describing poorer countries.
The former president of U.S. Soccer, Sunil Gulati said, "We've never taken anything for granted in this process". With the World Cup expanding for the first time to include 48 countries in 2026, the United States was considered to be the favorite based purely on logistics.
It comes as no surprise that those countries could be the ones to sink the North American bid.
The quarterfinals, semifinals and final all would be held in the United States.
Central American and Caribbean nations as well as those in Oceania and Europe and some in Asia are expected to back the USA/Canada/Mexico bid.
The two bodies explored in details the aspects related to government guarantees and other legal procedures linked to the Moroccan bid.
