FIFA, soccer’s global governing body, on Thursday delivered fans a “first-of-its-kind offer” to the 2025 Club World Cup, which will debut in the United States this summer, with ticket packs that include “guaranteed” access to the 2026 men’s World Cup — the grander international tournament that will also be held in the U.

ESPN's Emily Keogh noted Thursday that FIFA president Gianni Infantino said the United States is in line to host the 2031 event. What's more, the United Kingdom will host the tournament in 2035 thanks to a joint bid from England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

While FIFA is scheduled to announce Women's World Cup hosts next year, the organization's president said the U.S. is alone in its bid for 2031.

The United States, and "potentially" some regional partners, will "bid" unopposed for the 2031 Women's World Cup.

The Chiefs’ loss in Super Bowl LIX set a record with 127.7 million U.S. viewers across television and streaming platforms. But as FIFA president Gianni Infantino noted this week, those numbers won’t come close to the viewership expected for the 2026 World Cup.

FIFA president Gianni Infantino said the United States is poised to be named as host of the Women’s World Cup in 2031. USA Soccer later confirmed the news.

FIFA president Gianni Infantino said on Thursday the United States and another Concacaf country are the sole bidders to co-host the 2031 Women's World Cup.
