The South American football confederation, CONMEBOL, has proposed that the next FIFA World Cup in 2030 feature 64 teams. This proposal was put forward shortly after the conclusion of the most recent tournament. Alejandro Domínguez, president of CONMEBOL, indicated his support for this expansion in a post on X, although FIFA has not officially confirmed this plan.
FIFA President Gianni Infantino has a history of advocating for larger tournaments, suggesting that the trend toward increasing participation could continue. However, the feasibility of expanding the World Cup to accommodate 64 teams remains unverified by FIFA, and discussions about the structure and logistics of such an event are likely ongoing. As of now, it remains uncertain whether the proposal will gain formal approval or how logistical challenges might be addressed if it does move forward.
