🏟️ Where should the 2030 World Cup final be? Mou knows best
The Bernabéu should host the grand final of the 2030 World Cup. That is how emphatic José Mourinho was when asked which venue should stage the decisive match of the tournament to be jointly hosted by Spain, Portugal and Morocco.
The Portuguese coach wanted to draw a distinction between his personal wish and his footballing judgment. Laughing, he admitted his sentimental preference: “One thing is where it should be, and another is where I would like it to be. Forgive me, I’d like it to be in Lisbon”.

However, Mourinho was very clear in explaining why the Whites’ coliseum is the ideal option for an event of such magnitude. “If you can play in a mythical, historic stadium, where some of the best players in history have played… It should be here”, he said firmly.
In addition, the coach wanted to make it clear that his stance is not due to his current link with the capital club. “My answer is not because I am Real Madrid‘s coach. And I would say the same even if I were Benfica’s coach”, he said to reaffirm his impartiality.
