FIFA's president Gianni Infantino says it's an offer, not an obligation, and a golden opportunity to develop the game around the world.
Europe's football governing body UEFA says FIFA is using the sport to enrich itself and its friends.
All of which comes back to a simple question.
Where does FIFA's money come from in the first place?
Almost all of it comes from one tournament.
At the start of this year's World Cup, I followed the money to find out how those billions are made.
Here's that addition again.
Everything in it was accurate at the beginning of June.
500 million people applied for tickets for the 2026 FIFA Football World Cup, but there were only 7 million seats.
I'm Sam Fenwick at the bar in Hotel Football in the shadow of Old Trafford in Manchester here in the UK.
A stadium on one side, a hotel built by former players on the other.
The walls are covered with photographs of footballers from around the world.
Stars who draw fans and money from every corner of the planet.
Football and business side by side here in one place.
Which is rather the point because this summer the game goes global.
48 teams, 104 matches across the United States, Canada and Mexico.
The biggest World Cup ever.
Hi there, what can I get you?
Most of the world won't be watching in the stadiums.
They'll be in places like this.
