The captain of the Croatian national football team, Luka Modrič, opposes the holding of the World Cup every two years. This model is proposed by the International Football Federation (FIFA), the realmist of Real Madrid does not see the point in it.
“The World Cup is special in that it takes place in a four-year cycle. Shortening this period would detract from their attractiveness. I don’t want them to be played every two years. I’m angry that no one has asked us players for an opinion on this. Nobody cares. “What we think about it,” said Modrich at a news conference in Kiev ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League match with Shakhtar Donetsk.
FIFA is preparing a study on whether it is possible for the Men’s and Women’s World Championships to take place every two years instead of the current four-year cycle. The project is being promoted by Saudi Arabia, but has met with harsh criticism, and the European Football Union (UEFA) and the South American Football Confederation (CONMEBOL) would also consider boycotting the event, according to some reports.
