With FIFA president Gianni Infantino’s proposed changes to the World Cup format gaining momentum, CONCACAF president Victor Montagliani said that there is an opportunity for the tournament to be hosted by a coalition of the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Discussing the prospects for a joint bid between the three countries, Montagliani said that “the door is wide open.”
Only one time in tournament history has the event been hosted by multiple countries. In 2002, Japan and South Korea were the hosts. Libya and Tunisia combined on a 2010 World Cup bid before withdrawing prior to the vote.
