If (Or When) The NFL Goes International, Which 5 Cities Seem Most Likely To Land A Team?

The NFL is pushing global — nine international games in 2026 (London, Paris, Madrid, Munich, Melbourne, Rio, Mexico City and more) as it eyes 16 overseas games and one-day stretches of football that can last 14 hours.
Commissioner Roger Goodell said he has “no doubt” the league will eventually have teams based outside the U.S., as travel logistics improve and a European division becomes conceivable.
Top candidates for a full-time international team: London (clear favorite for fan base, venues and time zone), with Germany (Munich/Berlin), Madrid/Paris and nearby Toronto also in the mix.
