Football fans across Bermuda and the CONCACAF region are in for an insightful morning as the confederation's President, Victor Montagliani, is scheduled to appear LIVE on Islandstats.com at 10 am today.
The Canadian football executive will be discussing a range of key topics, including the significant improvements and growth witnessed within CONCACAF over the past five years under his leadership. Montagliani, who also holds the prestigious position of Vice President on the FIFA Council, is expected to provide a comprehensive overview of the progress made in developing football across North and Central America and the Caribbean.
A major point of discussion will undoubtedly be the preparations and outlook for the region as it gears up to co-host the prestigious FIFA Men's World Cup in 2026. With the tournament just a year away, Montagliani's insights into the logistical planning, infrastructure developments, and overall readiness of the host nations will be keenly anticipated.
Montagliani's journey in football administration is well-documented. He was elected as President of the Canadian Soccer Association in May 2012 before announcing his candidacy for the CONCACAF presidency in February 2016. In a closely watched election on May 12th, 2016, Montagliani triumphed over Bermuda's own Larry Mussenden to take the helm of the confederation.
Looking further ahead, Montagliani is also expected to touch upon FIFA's recent announcement at the 2025 UEFA Congress, confirming that the United States and their CONCACAF partners are the sole bidders to host the FIFA Women's World Cup in 2031. This presents a significant opportunity for the region to further elevate the women's game on the global stage.
Bermudian football fans will have a particular interest in hearing Montagliani's perspective, given the island's connection through Larry Mussenden's previous presidential bid and the ongoing development of football within the nation under the CONCACAF umbrella.
Tune in to Islandstats.com at 10 am this morning for what promises to be a compelling and informative live interview with CONCACAF President Victor Montagliani.
