Imagine Italy winning a bid to host a major tourney. FIFA- the most corrupt sports organization requires bundles of $$ in bribes to get you name in the hat for consideration. Then FIFA will look at the potential commercial gains each host nation could offer. Imagine Shitaly outbidding an oil country, a Germany, Spain, France, china, or yes - even the USA. All of them dwarf shitaly in infrastructure, stadiums, commercial upside.
The only scenario is if they win the bid to a host women’s or U21 or below tourney.
