European Club Association chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has told Sport Bild the United States would be a good choice to host the 2026 World Cup.
FIFA's decision to expand the 2026 tournament to 48 teams from 32 -- which will see 80 games played rather than the current 64 -- reduced several nations' hopes of hosting a World Cup due to a lack of infrastructure and North America is the strong favourite.
CONCACAF general secretary Philippe Moggio said last month that he favours a three-way 2026 World Cup bid with the United States, Mexico and Canada, but Rummenigge -- who has been strongly critical of the World Cup expansion plan -- suggested there was no need for co-hosts.
