Real Madrid and Spain's federation make their case for the 2030 final

At FIFA’s visit to the Bernabéu, a Real Madrid official argued that a stadium alone does not make a great event: it takes a team that can manage big occasions smoothly. Kooora describes the official as having around two decades of experience organizing matches and events at the ground. It also points to the Bernabéu's recent NFL game as an example of that experience, and says the club sees both its event record and renovated stadium as reasons Madrid should host the final. At a separate dinner with FIFA officials, federation president Rafael Louzán said Spain wanted the final on its soil, arguing that this fits Spain's role in organizing the tournament. FIFA has not made the venue decision.
