Several other football stars, including Brazilian retired professional footballer Roberto Carlos, Samuel Eto’o, Didier Drogba, and El Hadji Diouf, are campaigning for Morocco’s bid.
The FIFA task force, which has evaluated the two bids, is expected to publish its assessments during the first week of June. The task force assessment will decide whether the bids meet the FIFA requirements to host the tournament.
The result of the evaluation will be published a week before the vote, which is scheduled to take place on June 13 in Moscow.
