阿根廷、智利、乌拉圭和巴拉圭正式发起了前所未有的四国申办2030年国际足联世界杯的行动。今年是乌拉圭首届世界杯100周年。南美足球联合会（CONMEBOL）主席亚历杭德罗·多明格斯（Alejandro Domínguez）在启动活动现场发言时表示，在2030年主办世界杯是“一个大陆的梦想”。 2014年，巴西是最后一个举办男子世界杯的南美国家。2017年，乌拉圭和阿根廷最初发出了南美联合申办的信号，后来智利和巴拉圭也加入到申办之中。阿根廷在1978年、智利在1962年分别举办了足球世界杯。欧洲的西班牙和葡萄牙也联合申办2030年世界杯。

The "Together 2030" project is competing against Spain and Portugal, who have launched a joint bid.

Morocco has also shown interest, while a bid from Romania, Greece, Bulgaria and Serbia was proposed in 2018.

Qatar is scheduled to stage the 2022 World Cup between November 21 and December 18.

The United States, Canada are Mexico are to host the 2026 edition, which is due to be the first to have expanded to 48 teams.
