Technical director of the national team
Saudi Arabia, which is seeking to host the 2034 FIFA World Cup soccer tournament, is also expected to challenge to host the 2035 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
The BBC reported on the 20th that it is time for the Saudi Arabian government to host the 2035 Women’s World Cup, adding that if the 2034 Men’s World Cup is held, it is possible to host the 2035 Women’s World Cup.
Stave was the head coach of the Saudi Arabian women’s national soccer team from 2021 to early this year, and moved to technical director this year. “Saudi Arabia’s women’s sports future is bright,” she said at the Leaders Week conference in London, England. “Saudi Arabia’s women’s soccer should also try to reach the level of the World Cup.”
However, controversy is expected if Saudi Arabia, which is known to have limited women’s human rights, hosts the FIFA Women’s World Cup. When Saudi Arabia’s tourism agency brand Visit Saudi signed a sponsorship contract with FIFA ahead of the Women’s World Cup co-hosted by Australia and New Zealand this year, controversy arose that it did not fit the vision of the Women’s World Cup.
Currently, the venue for the next Women’s World Cup 2027 tournament has yet to be decided yet. Brazil and South Africa are also known to be interested in attracting the three countries, Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium, and the possibility of co-hosting the U.S. and Mexico.
The BBC predicted, “If Germany, the Netherlands, and Belgium jointly host the 2027 Women’s World Cup, England can challenge to host the 2035 tournament instead of the 2031 tournament currently under consideration.”
Saudi Arabia is also competing with Australia, Jordan, and Uzbekistan in the 2026 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Women’s Asian Cup. Saudi Arabia has already decided to host the 2029 Asian Winter Games and the 2034 Asian Summer Games. 스포츠토토
The Saudi Arabian Professional Football League is also recruiting world-class players such as Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal) and Karim Benzema (France), and LIV Golf, which was created last year to counter the PGA Tour, is also a league run by the Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund (PIF).
