Club World Cup 2029: DFB denies interest in hosting

Ahead of the DFB Congress on Friday in Frankfurt, where Neuendorf is to be confirmed in office, the DFB boss announced that he could imagine initiating a German bid for the Men's World Cup 2038 or 2042 within his second term of office.

Last year, the German Football Association (DFB) clearly failed in its bid to host the 2027 Women's World Cup, losing out to Brazil. This was partly attributed to the long-standing poor relationship with FIFA President Infantino. The relationship with the FIFA president is now considered to have stabilized.
