Morocco called on FIFA President Gianni Infantino to ensure a “transparent” and “equitable” vote for the host country of the 2026 World Cup. It is difficult in a race when the referee or judge is not impartial,” El Alamy told reporters in Casablanca. The public vote will take place on June 13 with each FIFA member country in good standing will have a vote on the host. Media reports have raised the issue of the $302 million that the FIFA would gain if the joint North American bid wins. Morocco is making its fifth bid to the World Cup and appears more ready than ever to host the tournament.
