FIFA has delayed confirming US Soccer's 2031 Women’s World Cup joint bid, as US government guarantees remain unresolved.

I’m gonna be so mad if we can’t host the good World Cup AND the bad World Cup is extra bad because of this bozo:

The joint proposal from the US, Mexico, Costa Rica, and Jamaica remains the only valid bid. However, FIFA requires multiple federal assurances before awarding hosting rights. This includes a Government Declaration from the head of state and a legal guarantee from the justice department covering visas, security, and tax exemptions.

The Trump White House has yet been to provide those guarantees, according to sources familiar with the process. The delay has stalled what was expected to be a routine FIFA Congress approval later this spring, pushing back key planning steps.
