Morocco is said to be “pushing extremely hard” to host the 2030 World Cup final, but the Spanish FA is “adamant that the prize is theirs.” Spain, Portugal and Morocco are hosting the 2030 World Cup. FIFA insiders say that it is “50-50 between the redeveloped Bernabéu in Madrid” and a new stadium in Morocco. Morocco’s Grand Stade Hassan II de Casablanca, which is slated to open in 2028, would be one of the largest soccer stadiums in the world with a stadium capacity of 115,000. Spanish FA President Rafael Louzán insisted earlier this year that Spain “will be the leader of the 2030 World Cup and the final of that World Cup will be here” (London TIMES, 6/19).
