FIFA will delay deciding upon a host for the 2026 World Cup three extra years.
In an attempt to avoid the recriminations that dogged the 2010 decision to give the 2018 World Cup to Russia and 2022 tournament to Qatar, world football's governing body will try a four-phase approach for 2026.
Bids likely will come from CONCACAF nations Canada, Mexico and the United States -- perhaps in a combination of two or even three of those nations -- as well as interest from Australia and New Zealand, Turkey and Kazakhstan, Morocco and perhaps even England.
