White House officials will meet with FIFA president Gianni Infantino to discuss potential health risks from wildfires in the New York and New Jersey area before the World Cup 2026 final.
Sport.Biz reports this according to journalist Rob Harris of "Sky News".
Earlier, it was reported that the decisive match of the tournament between Spain and Argentina may be postponed due to large-scale forest fires in Canada, which have affected the northern states of the US, including New York and New Jersey. An MLS match between "Chicago Fire" and "Vancouver Whitecaps" has been postponed to October 6 due to strong smoke.
It is also noted that if the level of air pollution poses a risk to health, the possibility of postponing the 2026 World Cup final, although unlikely, is not ruled out.
