FIFA President Infantino said in an interview with Italy's Anch'io radio that if the World Cup can be held every 2 years, then the European Championship can also be held every 2 years.

FIFA is currently pushing for a World Cup to be changed from every four years to every two years, which has been boycotted by European and South American countries.

Asked about the impact of the World Cup on The European Championship if it is held every two years, Infantino said: "The European Championship can also be held every two years. ”

"There is resistance in Europe because every week the best players in the world play in the best leagues. But that's not the case for the rest of the world, and we need to find a way to really cover the whole world of football. ”

Infantino added that pushing for a two-year World Cup was not his own idea, but FIFA's, with 166 countries asking for a feasibility study.
