U.S. Soccer Federation President Sunil Gulati will join his counterparts from the Mexican and Canadian federations Monday for what is expected to be an announcement detailing plans for a joint bid to host the 2026 World Cup.
Gulati will appear with Canada’s Victor Montagliani and Mexico’s Decio de Maria at a New York news conference Monday morning in New York.
“Canada, the U.S. and Mexico are aiming for a joint bid, the idea has been around for a while, discussions are continuing and it is a very exciting proposition if it comes to fruition,” Montagliani told the Guardian newspaper this week.
