World Cup will use more indoor venues for day-time kick-offs to combat heat | Gianni Infantino

FIFA’s president Gianni Infantino, closed air -conditioned spaces in the 2026 World Cup daytime strokes are used as much as possible to combat high temperatures expected, he said. Next year, Canada and Mexico, which will host the club during the World Cup in the United States will be concerned about the welfare of the player.

Enzo Fernández described Chelsea as “very dangerous” during the semifinals of Fluminense, where the temperature was 35C.

Infantino, Atlanta, Dallas, Houston and Vancouver’daki closed air -conditioned places will be used better, he said. There are 16 host venues – 11 in the USA, two in Canada and three in Mexico. Vancouver has the most cooler average June and July temperatures of indoor spaces.

“Heat is definitely a problem,” Infantino said. “This is a worldwide problem. I remember, I remember that it is the same in the Olympics and other football matches in Paris. But we have a stadium in Canada in Vancouver in America, and we will definitely use these stadiums during the day.”

Infantino declared a great financial success to the Club World Cup and said that the renewed 32 -team tournament earned £ 1.5 billion income. The competition ends with a final between Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea, where Donald Trump will participate in New York on Sunday.

Infantino said: “The golden period of global club football has begun. Certainly this FIFA Club World Cup is a great, big, great success. Of course, there are many positive, some negativities. We respect everyone’s opinion.

“We heard that it would not work financially, but in this competition, we can say that we produce over $ 2 billion ($ 1.48 billion) in revenues. We earned an average of $ 33 million per game. There is no other trophy competition in the world. Already the most successful club competition in the world.”

Infantino, 2.5 million tickets were sold and equal to an average of 40,000 per game, saying that some matches responded to criticism of weak participation. “Of course, there is no league in the world with this number outside the Premier League with host teams.”

Infantino thanked Trump for approved the tournament. “He loves the game,” he said. “You cannot organize such a competition without the full support of the government. Thanks to President Trump – he was great and he joins the finals tomorrow.”
