FIFA denies Morocco will host 2030 World Cup final

FIFA has moved to clarify that Morocco's role as co-host of the 2030 FIFA World Cup does not guarantee it will stage the tournament's final match. The governing body said in a statement that the venue for the final remains undecided, contrary to reports suggesting the North African nation would host the showpiece event.

The 2030 World Cup will be jointly hosted by Morocco, Spain, and Portugal under the current arrangement. However, FIFA emphasized that the allocation of specific matches, including the final, has not yet been determined and will be subject to a formal decision-making process.

The decision on where the final will be held is expected to be made in the coming months as FIFA continues its planning for the tournament. Multiple stadiums across the three nations are likely to be considered before the governing body announces its choice.

This clarification comes as speculation continues about how the tournament will be distributed among the three host nations and which venues will be selected for the most prestigious matches.
