World Cup Expansion? FIFA President Gianni Infantino Says It Will Be 'Examined'

FIFA president Gianni Infantino says the 48‑team 2026 World Cup was a "huge success" and has floated expanding to 64 teams for 2030 — the idea will be examined by FIFA committees.
Infantino argues expansion would give smaller nations a chance to improve and "dream" of World Cup play — part of a wider trend of tournament growth (e.g., CFP to 12 teams, NCAA to 76).
The current semis pit France (Mbappé) vs Spain (Lamine Yamal) and England (Kane, Jude Bellingham) vs Argentina (Lionel Messi), with the final set for July 19 in New Jersey.
