KUALA LUMPUR - Oman will face a race against time to build a stadium large enough to satisfy FIFA requirements if football’s governing body decides to expand the Qatar 2022 World Cup finals and asks the Sultanate to co-host the enlarged tournament.
But with Muscat’s Sultan Qaboos Stadium falling short of minimum capacity requirements for the World Cup, the Omanis would need to overhaul their biggest stadium to be considered a viable host. “Our stadium, the maximum capacity we have is 29,000, so in two years can we get that? That’s the question for the government, plus the other logistics. I’m optimistic but let’s see.”
“Sharing a few games with a few of the neighbouring countries is, of course, an option as well to make it a true World Cup for the world and for the whole Gulf region,” he said on Saturday.
