The International Football Federation (FIFA) plans to organize a tour of football legends around the world, and in the future hold a World Cup among former players. The president of the organization, Gianni Infantino, announced this during the 74th FIFA Congress in Bangkok, TASS writes.
“As for our plans, 75 FIFA academies around the world will be open until 2027,” Infantino said. – We will organize a tour of football legends. So that football fans can see these legends with their own eyes. Maybe we can organize a world championship among legends, that’s also interesting. We will also develop e-football. We are developing new games with our partners. We will create an internship program for our employees. We will organize management courses for players to prepare them for the future, this is very important. We will also, of course, devote time to social problems and human rights.
Note that the next FIFA World Cup will be held from June 11 to July 19, 2026 in the USA, Mexico and Canada.
