Sepp Blatter, the president of FIFA, has expressed his concern over the relatively low representation of African teams in the World Cup, despite the continent having 54 member associations. Blatter suggests that the current situation, where Africa has only five representatives in the World Cup, might hinder African teams from winning an intercontinental title. He calls for a change in the representation system, arguing that equal opportunities should be a priority. Blatter believes that in the future, football will become more “event-driven,” with shows and concerts enhancing the overall experience for a family audience. He hopes that African and Asian federations will receive fair representation in the World Cup.
