Morocco claims 2030 World Cup final hosting rights; FIFA denies it
Morocco's football federation chief claimed on September 10 that Casablanca would host the 2030 FIFA World Cup final, but FIFA swiftly denied the assertion on September 11. Morocco is co-hosting the 2030 tournament with Spain and Portugal, but the final venue remains unannounced; Morocco's prime minister publicly rebuked his own federation chief for the premature claim.
