Why will Saudi Arabia not participate in the World Cup? Why will Saudi Arabia not participate in the World Cup?



 Talk about the possibility of organizing the 2034 World Cup finals in Saudi Arabia began years ago, given the huge funds that the Saudi government has invested in sports, in order to achieve this goal.


 No one noticed what Saudi Arabia did in golf, and then it began to dominate international boxing competitions.  Its investments have also expanded significantly in the football transfer market.


 Despite Saudi Arabia's great ambitions in the field of football, the idea of ​​organizing the World Cup finals remains a surprise to many.


 As Saudi Arabia approaches hosting the tournament in 2034, this step will raise more controversy than Qatar’s organization of the World Cup last year, due to human rights issues and the method adopted by the International Federation to select candidates, as well as changing dates and appointments.  And its impact on the safety of the players, because the finals will be held.  Again in the winter due to the extreme heat experienced by the country.


 In fact, organizing a tournament with the participation of 48 teams will be more difficult than it was in the Qatar 2022 World Cup, in addition to greater requirements for building facilities and increased attention to environmental issues.
