FIFA confirm Omar Abdulkadir Artan canβt officiate at the World Cup after being denied entry into the United States.
The Somali referee is one of Africaβs most respected officials. Somalia's Ministry of Youth and Sports say Artan travelled with a valid US visa.
Yet Somalia is on a travel ban list introduced by President Trumpβs administration.
π£οΈ βFIFA is not involved in host country immigration processes, including visa adjudications, and has been informed by authorities that Mr Artan's status will not be changed at present.
βIn line with previous FIFA events, a host government ultimately determines who receives a visa and who is admitted into their country.β

JurriΓ«n Timber misses the 2026 World Cup.
The 24-year-old defender has not recovered sufficiently from a groin injury to take part in the World Cup in a medically responsible manner. In consultation with the medical staff, it has therefore been decided that Timber will leave the national teamβs pre-camp in New York after the game against Uzbekistan.
Weβre with you, JurriΓ«n. π§‘
Dear God, please don't let me end up with someone I love only to find out when we're already together that they actually do not even like me ππΎππΎππΎ
