It is clear to FIFA that football has and must change urgently. The highest body of world football has gathered in Doha during these days former players and former coaches to study how to make more sense of the calendar . Arsene Wenger has explained the decisions taken, which would come into force from 2028 (some in 2024) and which would have as a major novelty the elimination of the national team stoppages to group these matches in the month of October .
"All the actors are concerned about the quantity and quality of the matches . We start from making fewer trips and less climatic changes. The way to combine the matches of national teams and teams is not the most appropriate. We have to reduce matches, but they have They have to be much more interesting. The fans want more important matches. They demand it. We have to reduce the differences between the confederations and give the same opportunities . "
The revolution would come with the change of formats. "The current calendar is out of date. In September there is already a first stop, in October the second, in November the third and in March the fourth window. In June the last window and in July the new season begins. All this is too much It's about regrouping the qualifying rounds to avoid travel. August and September would be for club football and October for the qualifying rounds . From November until the end of the season again for club football, " Wenger said . Logically, the summers would remain for the final phases such as the World Cup, Eurocup, America's Cup , etc.

Arsene wenger:
The question is to know if more or less matches of the current ones will be played. "How many games should a footballer play? There is no ideal figure. The physical potential of each one is different. Footballers want to play important games. Travel and weather changes are more detrimental than the number of games. With the schedule that we propose that fewer games would be played. " The world soccer calendar is closed until 2024, but the changes could become effective from then on. The World Cup every two years could come from 2028.
Ronaldo approves
Ronaldo Nazario has been one of the former players chosen by FIFA to study the possible changes. "I am very optimistic about the changes. The World Cup will continue to be the most prestigious on the planet. The current calendar was established a hundred years ago and that is a lot. The world has changed. We must improve the quality and the spectacle, but also the rest that with the current calendar hardly exists. Only one window for tournaments and qualifying phases, it would be better for everyone. It will improve the quality of football. Motivation playing the qualifying phases in a month, will be higher, it will mean that everyone is they will drink with more enthusiasm and they will have more attention. The Champions is played every year and does not lose interest ".
"If you ask Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo they will say that they do want to have more chances to win the World Cup"
Ronaldo He insisted: "We all agree with the proposed calendar. Every two years is a wonderful idea. If you ask Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo they will say that they do want to have more chances to win the World Cup. It is the natural evolution of football and life. You have to follow the evolution of the world of football. Four years is a long time. Too long. With the change, many more people will be able to enjoy a World Cup. The experience of playing a World Cup is one of the best of my life. Children are constantly looking for new experiences. Everyone has to speak and seek solutions for the football industry to improve the quality of the entertainment and if this is the case, the football industry will grow and the youngest can be financed. Clubs, confederations ... The message is very positive.The changes are so that the players have more rest and the fans can enjoy more and better football. "
