Former President Donald Trump has suggested relocating FIFA World Cup 2026 matches scheduled for the Boston area due to safety concerns and criticism of local leadership. The proposal, made on October 19, 2025, targets games at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts. FIFA officials have firmly stated that such decisions remain under their sole jurisdiction.
The Boston FIFA World Cup host committee has expressed worries about not receiving sufficient funding from the state for the 2026 tournament preparations. Governor Maura Healey remains confident that the necessary funds will be allocated.
