Concerns Mount Ahead of FIFA Club World Cup in the U.S.

As the FIFA Club World Cup approaches, worries about immigration raids and visa delays are causing anxiety among international soccer fans. The tournament, featuring top teams from around the world, is set to commence soon, yet ticket sales have been sluggish, prompting FIFA to lower prices. Key stars, including Cristiano Ronaldo, have opted out of participation amid these uncertainties. FIFA has reassured fans that safety remains a priority, but many are still questioning whether they will attend the event in light of potential border issues and political ramifications.
