Spanish politician says Spain will withdraw from the 2030 World Cup if Morocco hosts the final.
Alberto Núñez Feijóq, the leader of Spain’s Popular Party and a candidate to become Spain’s next president, made the statement during an interview on the Spanish football programme El Chiringuito.
He said Spain should host the 2030 World Cup final and argued that if Spain does not get the final, it should not take part in organising the tournament.
When he was directly asked if he would support Spain withdrawing from hosting the World Cup if Morocco gets the final, Feijóo replied yes.
Spain, Portugal and Morocco are set to co-host the 2030 World Cup, but FIFA has not yet officially announced where the final will be played.
