South Africa not ready yet to host World Cup
SUN CITY, South Africa: FIFA secretary general Jerome Valcke says South Africa isn’t ready yet to host the World Cup, and he still doesn’t know where all 32 teams will be based during the tournament.
FIFA wanted the list of training camps completed on Tuesday, but those plans have been derailed by teams still changing their plans ahead of the June 11-July 11 event.
FIFA still hasn’t had confirmation from England that it will be based at the Royal Bafokeng Sports Campus near Rustenburg amid concern about the state of its training pitches.
FIFA is also frustrated that England’s Group C rival Algeria told it on Tuesday that it has decided to move to a new hotel complex.
