At the 2018 Russia world cup, the performance of host Russia shocked the world. For China, it seems that it has never been destined for the world cup. Will China host the world cup? China is expected to host the world cup in 2034. Do you expect it?
Therefore, every bit of Russia's World Cup touched the Chinese Football League and even the country's higher level. According to Ma Dexing of Sports Weekly, relevant parties are studying the bidding for the world cup. The 2030 World Cup may be the beginning of China's bidding for the world cup.
In fact, the Chinese Football Association has long had the idea of bidding for the world cup. After the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the leaders of the Chinese Football Association expressed such wishes successively. Wei Di even publicly disclosed that he hoped to bid for the 2018 / 2022 World Cup. But FIFA has very strict requirements for the host country. It is not simply the Chinese Football Association that can decide such a big event as bidding for the world cup. In fact, the Chinese Football Association has not submitted the official documents of bidding for the world cup to FIFA.
In 2015, the general office of the State Council issued the overall plan for the reform and development of Chinese football. In this plan, it is clearly put forward: actively bid for FIFA men's World Cup. However, the overall plan for China's football reform and development does not specify the time when China will bid for the world cup, but the most logical and feasible one is the 2030 World Cup.
However, it is quite difficult for China to bid for the world cup in 2030, because China will not only face the competition from South American countries, Morocco, England, South Korea, Japan, the United Arab Emirates, etc., but also Qatar and North America will host the next two world cups, and Asia and North America can no longer bid for the world cup in 2030. However, if FIFA votes in the General Assembly on the host country of the 2030 World Cup, the vote of the assembly will not result, and China has a weak bid opportunity.
China's chances of bidding for the world cup in 2030 are slim, but this is also the first step of bidding for the world cup. Asia can bid for the world cup in 2034 without any restriction. If it can't hold the world cup in 2030, 2034 will be the best opportunity for China.
