Infantino: In the coming years, football will become the leading sport in America

In the coming years, football in the USA is truly on the verge of revolutionary changes. According to FIFA President Gianni Infantino, football may now become the most popular and in-demand sport on the entire American continent. In his opinion, developing football in the USA remains one of FIFA’s main priorities.

“In three, four, at most five years, football will become the absolute leader among sports in America. The league here will become one of the strongest and most competitive championships in the world. I will see it with my own eyes; it will become reality,” Infantino said in his interview.

Infantino also suggested introducing a promotion-relegation system to further popularize football and increase competition in the USA. This system has proven effective in European championships and may also fully suit American football.

It should be noted that the Club World Cup currently arouses great interest in the USA, but for some matches, ticket prices are so low that filling stadiums has become a separate problem. For example, for the first Club World Cup match between Egypt’s “Al-Ahly” and Lionel Messi’s “Inter Miami”, tickets were sold for just $4. This situation makes one think about the level of audience interest and marketing policy.

FIFA’s new policy, prestigious world championships, the arrival of star players, and the modernization of national championships may cause a huge boom in football’s popularity in America. In the coming years, a new history of football may be written in the country, millions of new fans may emerge, and the US football market may take a leading position in global competition.

Gianni Infantino’s confident forecasts and football’s striving for big goals in the USA indicate the beginning of a new era in the football world. So, the bright future of football in America is just beginning! Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
