White House World Cup Task Force Exec Dir Andrew Giuliani said that the U.S. could “consider making a bid to host the men’s 2038 World Cup.” FIFA is considering expanding the format further to 64 teams as early as 2030. Giuliani said, “When you think that this World Cup may at some point expand out to 64 teams, I think the United States can handle it.” However, he noted he wants to “get through this World Cup” before the U.S. makes “our pitch for 2038 or other ones.” The 2038 World Cup is the next one for which a bidding process will take place (BBC.com, 6/26).
