Indonesia announced to host World Cup 2034

The president of the Indonesian Football Association (PSSI), Mr. Erick Thohir, confirmed this information. He even wants to involve Australia in the plan. “ We are discussing the bid together with Australia. When I visited Malaysia and Singapore, both countries also expressed their desire to join our alliance .”

Asked by Reuters to comment on the possibility of joining the consortium, a representative of the Australian Football Federation said: “ We will consider the possibility of bidding for the 2029 FIFA Club World Cup or the 2034 World Cup .” The Asian Football Confederation said it would not comment on the move.

Indonesia will have to make many improvements in terms of stadiums, facilities and security if it wants to host the 2034 World Cup.

However, it must be admitted that Indonesia or the Indonesia-Singapore-Malaysia alliance can hardly compete with Saudi Arabia, the strongest candidate for hosting the 2034 World Cup.

After announcing Spain, Morocco and Portugal as the three host countries of the 2030 World Cup (Uruguay, Paraguay and Argentina will host the opening matches), FIFA invited Asia and Oceania to host the 2034 finals. Because according to the rotation plan, in 2034 it will be Asia and Oceania's turn to host the World Cup.

Saudi Arabia has been building its reputation by inviting world-class stars, the country’s infrastructure is always ready, and they are publicly backed by the AFC (the AFC is silent on the case of Indonesia). Therefore, it can be said that Saudi Arabia is still “holding the pole” in the race.
