If you don't want people from all walks of life in your country, don't bid for the right to host the World Cup.

This is madness!

Scandal ahead of the 2026 World Cup: Uzbekistan’s national team subjected to intensive screening in the United States

Immediately after arriving in New York for a friendly match against the Netherlands, the players were searched with the assistance of drug-detection dogs. No similar screening of the Dutch team has been reported.

Senegalese players were also subjected to enhanced inspections, while a referee from Somalia was reportedly denied entry to the United States without explanation. He had been expected to become the first Somali official to work at a World Cup.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup will be held in the United States, Canada, and Mexico from June 11 to July 19.

Thank you, Ian Wright, for speaking out against what is shaping up to be the worst FIFA World Cup in modern history and for highlighting how Donald Trump’s America has demeaned the beautiful game of football.

It is sad that FIFA President Gianni Infantino has shown so little courage and independence, choosing instead to remain silent while football is dragged into the politics of exclusion and discrimination.

Where are the big African names who have remained quiet while Africans are being belittled by this racist regime in America? Did you see how the Senegalese World Cup team was treated on arrival, Africa’s top referee denied entry, and fans, journalists, and at times coaches denied entry?

I am not surprised that it took an Arsenal great like Ian Wright to speak out publicly. In a world where too many of the powerful and influential are consumed by self-interest, it is refreshing to see principled people like Ian Wright stand up and speak when it matters most, rather than cower in silence.

Football is supposed to unite people across borders, races, and cultures. Those who claim to lead the game should be defending those values, not looking the other way when they are under attack.

This is what FIFA President Gianni Infantino said on 9 March 2017.
“Any team, including the supporters and officials, who qualify for a World Cup need to have access to the country, otherwise there is no World Cup. That is obvious.”

Yet today, he is remarkably and comically quiet while fans, officials, coaches, journalists, and even referees face barriers and restrictions. What changed? The principle seemed clear enough in 2017.

It is disappointing to see someone who once spoke so firmly about equal access to the World Cup now appear unwilling to defend those same values. Leadership is tested when it is inconvenient, not when it is easy. Silence in the face of discrimination and exclusion is not leadership.
