A day at the soccer pitch should offer a nice distraction from trade wars and tariff talk.

- Bloomberg

Next year's FIFA World Cup, to be jointly hosted by Canada, Mexico, and the US, will test that theory. Can the US, in particular, stage a successful tournament that attracts fans from around the world? Or will tensions, tariffs, and deportations alienate visitors and businesses?

We don't have to wait until next year to see the peril. Just take a look at the situation facing the upcoming 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, which kicks off in 11 US cities this June. The Club World Cup highlights professional teams from different countries, typically with players of different nationalities, while the World Cup features national teams representing their countries. Unfortunately for FIFA, ticket sales for this year's Club event have been underwhelming for months.
