FIFA: It is too early to comment on the situation in Iran
Reports have emerged that US military forces have launched an operation on Iranian territory. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
Regarding this situation, FIFA Secretary General Mattias Grafström shared his opinion. This was reported by euro-football.ru.
According to Mattias Grafström, he read the news this morning from the press like everyone else. The FIFA leadership held a meeting that day but emphasized that it is still too early to provide a detailed comment on the situation.
ESPN quotes the Secretary General as saying: “This morning I reviewed the reports about the events in Iran. We held a meeting, but we are not ready to comment on this matter in detail at the moment.
We will continue to monitor the developments worldwide.” Additionally, this year in the summer, the United States, Canada, and Mexico are scheduled to jointly host the FIFA World Cup. Since the Iranian national team is among the participating teams, the current situation could become more complicated.
It should be noted that the current world champion is Argentina. The "Albiceleste" team will take the field to defend their title in this year's tournament.
