FIFA Confirms 11 Bids for 2018 World Cup

Soccer’s governing body, FIFA, has confirmed that they have received 11 bids for the right to host the 2018 World Cup.

Australia is thought to be an early favorite to host the 2018 World Cup but they will face stiff competition from England, Russia and the United States among several other countries vying for the world’s most watched event.

FIFA received joint bids from Spain and Portugal along with the Netherlands and Belgium but joint bids are not in favor with FIFA president Sepp Blatter who has encouraged countries who have the ability to stage the World Cup on their own to submit an individual bid.

Among the other countries that submitted bids to host the 2018 World Cup; Mexico, Qatar, Indonesia, Japan and South Korea.

Voting for the host country will not take place until Dec. 2010. The 2010 World Cup is being held in South Africa while the 2014 World Cup will be hosted by Brazil.
