Novel coronavirus pneumonia is discussed by FIFA and Japan Football Association, the report said. In view of the severe epidemic situation in Japan, the two sides decided that Japan would not hold the 2021 World Club Cup, and FIFA would consider a new venue for the 2021 World Club Cup.
This is the second time that the venue of the 2021 World Club Cup has been changed.
In October 2019, FIFA president ivantino announced that the first World Club Cup after restructuring will be held in China in June 2021. The New World Club Cup is planned to be held every four years, with 24 teams participating. The old version of the World Club Cup is held at the end of each year, with a total of 7 teams, including Championship clubs from all continents.
However, due to the impact of the epidemic, on December 5, 2020, FIFA announced that the first 24 team World Club Cup event originally scheduled to be held in China in June 2021 would be cancelled, and the event would continue the mode of 7 teams, which would be hosted by Japan and held in December 2021.
Now, after the Japanese football association gives up the right to host the 2021 World Club Cup, Qatar may become the host of the new 2021 World Club Cup, according to the Daily Telegraph.
At present, the tension hovering over Qatar is not about the World Club Cup, but about the world cup. On September 8, FIFA invited many famous players and coaches, including Materazzi, Roberto Carlos, Ronaldo and Hedila, to attend the seminar in Doha. The main agenda of this seminar is to discuss the plan proposed by Wenger to adjust the time of international match day and World Cup.
However, once the scheme of holding the world cup every two years was launched, it was strongly resisted by UEFA. As soon as FIFA's press conference was over, UEFA president seferin made a clear opposition to this plan through the times.
Seferin not only said that this plan would "kill football", but also made it clear that he would boycott the world cup together with South American Football Federation. "If the world cup is held every two years, the women's World Cup and the Olympic Games will suffer a heavy blow. FIFA has not even had any communication with us, and I don't think such an approach is appropriate," seferin said.
