Qatari Saud al-Muhanadi (C-L), secretary general of Qatar Football Federation, and FIFA representative former Argentinian footballer and international coach Gabriel Calderon (C-R) stands next to the FIFA World Cup trophy following its arrival in Doha.
Qatar could be losing its rights to host the 2022 FIFA World Cup according to German paper Die Welt.
Apparently the weather is touted to be too warm for the players as Eric Coris of the University of South Florida explained: “These athletes are working out very hard. They’re often becoming dehydrated and if they’re not used to that degree of heat and humidity it is a big strain on the body.”
“Would it be dangerous to play a World Cup in Qatar in the temperatures we see there in summer? Yes, most definitely.”
An insider suggested that FIFA’s governing body is considering to make a change by 2015 as there is still enough time left to organise the prestigious tournament in a different country.
The death of 400 Nepalese immigrant workers has worsened the situation, but as of now FIFA president Sepp Blatter has not decided to make a major change and believes that an in-house solution can be found.
