Date published: Tuesday 20th December 2022 9:35 -FIFA president Gianni Infantino wants the World Cup to be held every three years after what be believes has been a ‘game-changer’ in Qatar.
“The first item I want to highlight and stress of course is the praise – the unanimous praise – of the Fifa Council for this World Cup, for the unique cohesive power that this World Cup has shown,”“The thanks to everyone who was involved, to, of course, Qatar, all the volunteers who work, all of your, everyone who has contributed to make this World Cup the best World Cup ever.”
