England consider 2026 World Cup but won't bid 'while Mr Blatter's there'
English Football Association (FA) chair, Greg Dyke, has said England is considering a 2026 World Cup bid, but only if certain provisions come to pass.
England – which unsuccessfully bid for the 2018 World Cup, gaining only two out of 22 votes – would only bid again on the main proviso that Fifa president, Sepp Blatter, is no longer in power come the bidding process.
Dyke said that the appointment of David Gill to Fifa’s executive committee could prove favourable towards England, but added: “The policy is straightforward - we don't bid while Mr Blatter's there."
The bidding for both the 2018 and 2022 World Cups were mired in controversy, with allegations into alleged corruption resulting in the resignation of Fifa executive Jack Warner and an investigation into corruption in the process, which cleared Qatar of World Cup corruption charges by FIFA, while England was said to have 'violated bidding rules'.
Blatter is seeking a fifth term in office. If re-elected in May, he would oversee the 2026 bidding process, which will take place in 2017.
“There's a lot of money involved,” said Dyke. “So if you haven't got a chance [to win], don't do it."
