The World Cup in Canada, the United States and Mexico will take place in 207 days and officially from Thursday, November 13, Didier Deschamps and his players will be there. With so much certainty, there are still a few unknowns (opponents, base camp, list, etc.) and other questions.
In 2026, it is likely to happen. Before the World Cup, things weren’t so bad. A French team has not played at the Stade de France since their Nations League quarter-final win against Croatia on March 23. Since then, the venue has changed concessionaires and, unlike its rugby partners, the Federation (FFF) is yet to reach an agreement with GL Events. Therefore, the Blues played their last three matches at the Parc des Princes. But, on both sides, we are talking about better relationships. A deal announcement could even happen before the end of the month. The FFF wants to reconnect with the Stade de France, as demonstrated by its attempt to delay work on the RER line planned for the day of the Coupe de France final (23 May).
