No FIFA plans to replace Iran with Italy at World Cup

FIFA has no plans to replace Iran with Italy at this summer’s World Cup despite a proposal from U.S. President Donald Trump’s special envoy Paolo Zampolli.​ Speculation over Iran’s participation had grown because of the ongoing war involving the U.S., Israel and Iran, but world football’s governing body has reaffirmed that Iran will take part as scheduled. Zampolli, an Italian‑American and long‑time Trump ally, told the Financial Times he had suggested to both Trump and FIFA president Gianni Infantino that four‑time champions Italy be invited to take Iran’s place at the U.S.‑hosted tournament.​ “I confirm I have suggested to Trump and Infantino that Italy replace Iran at the World Cup,” Zampolli said, describing it as a “dream” to see the Azzurri at a World Cup staged in the United States. Italy failed to qualify for a third straight World Cup […]

Kompany turns down World Cup pundit job to prioritise family

Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany has revealed that he rejected several offers to work as a television pundit during the upcoming World Cup, saying he wants to use the break to rest and spend time with his family. Broadcasters in England reportedly approached the Belgian coach ahead of the tournament, which will be staged across the United States, Canada and Mexico, but he made it clear he had no intention of taking on extra work. “No chance, no chance,” Kompany replied, cutting in before a reporter could even finish a question about the offers. “What am I supposed to do, work as a TV pundit on holiday? I won’t have a family left in Munich next year,” he joked at a press conference before Wednesday’s DFB Pokal semi final against Bayer Leverkusen. He doubled down in a lighter tone, repeating […]

Trump says Iran should skip World Cup for own safety

United States President Donald Trump has said that while Iran’s national team is welcome at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, he believes they should not take part for their own life and safety. In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump wrote that the Iran national soccer team is welcome at the tournament in North America but added that it is not appropriate for them to be there, citing security risks linked to the ongoing war between the US, Israel and Iran. He framed his advice as a warning about potential dangers rather than a formal move to block their participation. His comments came shortly after FIFA president Gianni Infantino said Trump had personally assured him that Iran would be allowed to compete at the World Cup despite the conflict. Infantino said football should help unite people and thanked […]

Mexico fears Colombian narcos may sneak in as World Cup fans

Mexican authorities are working to stop Colombians linked with local drug cartels from using the 2026 World Cup to enter the country as fans. Security officials in Jalisco State say they are on high alert ahead of the tournament, which will bring tens of thousands of visitors to host city Guadalajara.

Officials fear that as the World Cup draws closer, foreign recruits could try to slip in using tourist packages and match tickets as cover. Alarcon warned that Guadalajara is an attractive base for certain criminal groups seeking to expand their operations. […]
