If approved at the World Cup every two years, this plan would be carried out from 2028, after the World Cup to be organized by Mexico, the United States and Canada
Arsene Wenger is in charge, by 166 FIFA federations, of reconfiguring the international football calendar and delivering the study on what the World Cup would be like every two years. So far it has two proposals, which would reduce the FIFA Dates and prioritize the rest of the players, which will be presented next December.
“All footballers dream of playing in important competitions, according to the studies carried out, the flight hours and the inclement weather of climate change, are more harmful than the number of matches for a player,” he assured Arsene Wenger. “The flight hours of the players are reduced by half with these proposals, for those who go outside Europe, the number of matches would not be increased, it would even be reduced, because the classification phases would be regrouped.”
In proposal one Ass Wenger, Discussed with 80 former footballers around the world, there would only be a period throughout the year for national teams, calculated between October and November, which would serve to play the qualifying stage, which would no longer be a reciprocal visit, or the competitions that have been in that year.
The second involves only two selection periods, marked in October, November and March, in which the qualifiers would be grouped, friendly matches would be reduced, devoting more time to working in clubs. Both under the premise of a World Cup every two years.
“I have been asked how we can make the international match schedule more agile and one of the things is to improve the schedule and improve the competitions, otherwise we will play big competitions, we will not play small competitions. I have no doubt, I am convinced that the my proposal is the right one for a better reorganization of football, “added Wenger.
If approved at the World Cup every two years, this plan would be carried out from 2028, after the World Cup to be organized by Mexico, the United States and Canada.
