The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF), led by President Samir Xaud, has officially expressed interest in hosting the 2029 FIFA Club World Cup. During a meeting with FIFA President Gianni Infantino in the United States, Xaud presented Brazil's candidacy, highlighting the country's readiness and the infrastructure legacy from hosting the 2027 FIFA Women's World Cup. Brazil's bid is part of a competitive selection process that includes other countries such as Spain, which has also formally communicated its interest to FIFA. Additionally, Qatar has emerged as a candidate, proposing to host the tournament in winter to avoid desert heat, although this could disrupt European domestic football calendars. Morocco and the United States are also mentioned as potential hosts. The decision on the tournament's venue remains pending, with FIFA acknowledging the discussions but not having made a final determination. The CBF emphasizes Brazil's capacity to host the event, leveraging its recent experience with major international football tournaments.
