Less than a year before the start of the 2026 FIFA<\/a> World Cup, a new decision by the government of Donald Trump, President of the United States, has generated concern among fans, migrant communities and sports organizations. The president signed a presidential proclamation restricting the entry into the country of citizens from Iran, Haiti, Senegal and Ivory Coast, nations that will participate in the World Cup tournament.<\/p>\n

According to a newspaper report, these restrictions are part of a broader immigration policy that once again places sports at the center of the political debate. Trump’s measure does not directly affect national teams or their official delegations, which will be able to enter U.S. territory under strict security controls, but it does impact thousands of fans who planned to travel to support their teams. <\/p>\n

Fans, the most affected<\/h2>\n

For supporters of Senegal and C\u00f4te d’Ivoire, as well as Iran and Haiti, Trump’s decision represents a significant hurdle.<\/p>\n

Although the teams will compete normally at their assigned venues, their citizens will face immigration restrictions that could prevent them from attending games in the United States.<\/p>\n

It should be recalled that, in the case of Iran, the situation had already generated tension previously.<\/p>\n

So much so that his delegation even considered boycotting the World Cup draw in Washington D.C.<\/p>\n

This follows the banning of one of its federative members.<\/p>\n

Despite Trump’s restrictions, the matches of these teams will be played in different U.S. cities:<\/p>\n

Ivory Coast<\/strong>
\nvs Ecuador – June 14, Philadelphia
\nvs Curacao – June 25, Philadelphia<\/p>\n

Senegal<\/strong>
\nvs France – June 16, New York\/New Jersey
\nvs Norway – June 22, New York\/New Jersey<\/p>\n

Iran<\/strong>
\nvs New Zealand – June 15, Los Angeles
\nvs Belgium – June 21, Los Angeles
\nvs Egypt – June 26, Seattle<\/p>\n

Haiti<\/strong>
\nvs Scotland – June 13, Boston
\nvs Brazil – June 19, Philadelphia
\nvs Morocco – June 24, Atlanta<\/p>\n

A decision that divides opinions<\/strong>
\nDespite the controversy, Trump recently received the FIFA Peace Award, presented by Gianni Infantino during the 2026 World Cup draw ceremony.<\/p>\n

This gesture generated mixed reactions, especially among sectors that consider immigration policies to be in contradiction with the inclusive spirit of the tournament.<\/p>\n
