Atlanta officials expect to draw thousands to the matches and use the FIFA Club World Cup as a trial run for the 2026 FIFA Men’s World Cup.
Atlanta’s World Cup Hosting Committee gave an update on its readiness last week. Chair Dan Corso thinks Atlanta is moving forward parking with soccer’s international governing body.
“I mean, we are a big event city. We know how to work together. We know how to make things happen. But we also know that we’re ready because we get great feedback from FIFA,” Corso said.
