Conmebol President Dominguez reiterated that he hopes the World Cup will be expanded to 64 teams in 2030, but only for this one time.
Dominguez said: "On the 100th anniversary of the World Cup, something special has to be done, which is why we believe this is an opportunity to do something different and host a World Cup that unites the world, just this once.
"I dream of hosting a World Cup with 64 teams, and I believe this is a great opportunity to do something that unites the world, bring football to more people, and celebrate in a completely different way. "
If the World Cup is expanded to 64 teams, it means that more than a quarter of FIFA's 210 men's teams will participate, which may make the qualifying process meaningless on many continents.
