De Bruyne: The biennial World Cup itself is not bad, but it needs to be coordinated to ensure that the players rest

On Friday, local time, when attending the press conference, Belgian midfielder De Bruyne talked about the World Cup, he believes that the biennial World Cup is not a bad idea, but it needs to be coordinated by all parties.

Previously, former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger proposed FIFA's biennial World Cup plan, and he now serves as the governing body's head of global football development. The proposal has been widely criticized by institutions such as UEFA and the Premier League.

De Bruyne said: "At the beginning of the season, I had the opportunity to meet with FIFA officials and Wenger, who explained to us what they wanted to do. I think that's a good idea in itself. For this to happen, all national federations, UEFA and FIFA must coordinate. Everyone must work together. I also told them that there had to be a real break for the players at the end of the season. But the idea itself isn't bad. ”
