FIFA World Cup 2022

Qatar's FIFA World Cup 2022 is the most expensive tournament so far.

Currently, nothing can be said about how much Qatar will benefit from the 2022 World Cup, but a large number of football fans are expected to arrive in Qatar.

Doha: Hosting a major tournament like the FIFA World Cup is not an easy goal for any country, which is why the host country (or countries) are announced 8 to 10 years in advance so that they can make their preparations accordingly. Can complete by time. The expenses for each World Cup are usually higher than the previous one, but the question is, what costs more for organizing the World Cup? When FIFA nominates a country to host, the purpose of the nomination several years in advance is to estimate costs. The host country of the global event also has to work on the renovation of the stadium.If the number of stadiums is less then new stadiums have to be built.

Before the 1990s, FIFA did not disclose the costs of the host countries, but now a list of what is being spent on what is being spent in advance of the event is easily found on the Internet. If we examine the expenditure incurred on the last World Cup, some such figures come before us.
