Saudi Arabia in talks to host 2030 World Cup finals

JEDDAH: Saudi Arabia is in talks with sports chiefs in Egypt and Greece over an audacious joint bid to host the 2030 football World Cup finals.
“The three countries are working flat out” and “the application to organize the tournament is being studied,” Mohammed Fawzi, spokesman for the Egyptian Sports Ministry, said on Friday.
Egypt had hosted many world championships in the past three years, Fawzi said, and was well qualified to stage football’s premier tournament.
