Examining Saudi Arabia’s Bid for the 2030 World Cup and Its Implications in International Sports

by Geraldine S.

in Global Trade, International Relations

Saudi Arabia, a major oil producer, has officially announced its bid to host the 2030 World Cup. This move aligns with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s vision to elevate Saudi Arabia as a key player in international sports. The kingdom’s economic power and ongoing large-scale projects aimed at diversifying its economy add weight to this aspiration. The bid follows the recent successful hosting of the World Cup by Qatar, which managed the event effectively, enhancing its global reputation.

This success occurred despite criticisms of Qatar’s migrant labor policies and human rights record. The impact of such criticisms on Qatar’s overall reputation was limited, with the World Cup itself drawing large crowds and global attention, showcasing the potential benefits of hosting such a significant event. Saudi Arabia is looking to replicate this success and further establish the Gulf region’s influence in international sports. This goal is evident in the recent election of Yasser Almisehal and Hamad bin Khalifa bin Ahmed Al Thani, heads of the Saudi and Qatari soccer associations, to FIFA’s council, a key decision-making body in global football.

However, challenges remain for Saudi Arabia’s bid, including its approach to addressing human rights concerns, which differ from those taken by Qatar. Issues such as labor law reforms, LGBTQ rights, and freedom of expression have drawn international scrutiny. For instance, the extended imprisonment of Saudi-American dual national Saad Ibrahim Almadi has raised questions about Saudi Arabia’s policies on freedom of expression. These factors contribute to the ongoing debate about the relationship between sports and politics, especially in the context of awarding major event hosting rights. Such decisions often reflect the values and politics of the international sports community, intertwining sports and political considerations. Saudi Arabia’s bid for the 2030 World Cup represents not only a sports strategy but also a significant move in international relations and diplomacy, highlighting the complex interplay between sports, politics, and human rights on the global stage.
