World Cup 2022 will probably be held in November and December

The 2022 World Cup will most likely be held in November / December 2022. Over the past 6 months, FIFA and the Executive Committee have met regularly to discuss the alternatives. The proposed period for the Football World Cup is supported by all six confederations.

The outcome of the discussions was also a proposal to limit the schedule of the 2022 World Cup and to determine the exact dates depending on the schedule and the number of stadiums. It was also proposed to hold the FIFA Confederations Cup 2021 in a country other than Qatar in the traditional months of June and July. Another international competition, such as the World Cup for clubs, can then serve as an operational test for the World Football Championship in Qatar in November / December 2021.

It was proposed to hold the World Football Championship in January / February 2022 or November / December 2022. In addition, April / May 2022 and May / June 2022 were also proposed as alternatives. After good conversations with all stakeholders of all football federations, related football organizations, chairmen of national and international competitions and various large clubs, they have investigated what the influence will be on the footballers themselves, the staff, the fans, but also on the other competitions and Given the fact that the Winter Olympics are being held from February 4 to 20, 2022, Ramadan starts on April 22, 2022 and it is too hot to play football between May and September, the November / November period is December 2022 the only remaining option for the World Football Championship. It is of course impossible to organize the 2022 World Cup outside that year.

Because the football tournament will take place at the end of 2022, the qualifying round can also be postponed. This completes the final qualifying games early 2022 . The committee will investigate what the schedule of qualifying competitions will look like.
