FIFA voted this morning to expand the World Cup to 48 teams for 2026. Asia and Africa will each get four additional spots, while Europe will get three more. That only leaves five spots to be be split between CONCACAF, COMNEBOL, and Oceania. Currently Europe gets 14 spots, Africa gets 5, Asia gets 4½, COMNEBOL gets 4½, CONCACAF gets 3½, and Oceania gets ½. The USA is the current favorite to host World Cup 2026.
