Football Australia expressed its interest in bidding for the men’s World Cup in 2034, taking inspiration from the success of hosting the women’s version.

The organization, in collaboration with New Zealand, is currently staging the largest-ever Women’s World Cup and aims to capitalize on this experience to organize more significant tournaments in the future.

Chief executive James Johnson emphasized their vision of being both local and global, bringing major football events to their communities.

They are considering bidding for the expanded Club World Cup in 2029 and are eyeing the men’s World Cup in 2034.

Johnson cited Canada’s example, which hosted the Women’s World Cup in 2015 and is now set to host the next men’s World Cup.

The successful staging of major tournaments will enhance Australia’s reputation and increase the likelihood of securing future hosting opportunities.

With plans to host the Olympics in 2032, Australia is gearing up for an exciting run of major sports events in the coming years.
