One of them is known as CONCACAF confederation is considering joint bid from Mexico, United States of America and Canada to be first countries to welcome 48 nations in the event for the first time. On Tuesday Morocco has expressed their willingness to host the 2026 World Cup and new CAF president, Ahmad Ahmad, has backed the proposal. His support came after encouraging words was said by FIFA president Gianni Infantino that the country has a good 'infrastructure and organisational capacity'.
