FIFA president Gianni Infantino has already shown support for this move between the two neighboring nations and many have high hopes regarding its success. The FIFA Congress is going to take place in Mexico City this week and football officials from both countries are expecting some good news to come out during that time.

United States Soccer Federation member Mr. John Motta sounded very optimistic as he spoke to a major sports channel regarding this. He confirmed that talks were in progress and that the Mexican officials too seemed enthusiastic about the idea for a joint bid.

Meanwhile, his Mexican counterpart, The Mexican Football Federation president Decio de Maria too confirmed the reports and expressed his personal desire that the idea for the joint bid works out in the interest of both parties.
