Fifa has agreed to study options for expanding the World Cup to 40 or 48 teams for 2026 in greater detail, says council member Michel D'Hooghe. The proposals will be made at the football world governing body's next meeting on 9 January 2017. "The feeling amongst the council is rather positive towards expansion," said Fifa president Gianni Infantino. The 2026 host has not yet been chosen, while the 2018 World Cup will be held in Russia and 2022 in Qatar.
