Wenger on biennial world cup reform: a decision will be made by 2024

According to the French media "Team Newspaper", Wenger, who participated in the charity race in Monaco today, was interviewed after the game. The professor said that the reform plan for the biennial World Cup will be finally voted on by 2024.

Wenger said: "The World Cup reform will be decided by the world football family, I am just organizing and planning the FIFA meeting. But you are also well aware that until 2028, even until 2030, the current World Cup format will not change, because the 2026 World Cup and Euro 2028 have been arranged. ”

"My advice is to arrange the schedule, reduce the friction between the club and the national team, group the qualifiers and organize the major matches of the national team after the league is over. We are all accustomed to the World Cup every four years, the football world usually resists change, and our reforms are indeed very subversive. ”

"But if you look at the younger age, if you look at the young people who are 10-18 years old, their perception of time and their need for events is not the same." I think in this day and age, you have to always provide people with big events because they're used to being fast-paced. ”

"The final decision on the World Cup reform package will be made in 2024 and we will see that."
