[Saba Sports News] Leon Goretzka, a player for
the German national team, recently spoke out once again in an interview with
the media regarding Saudi Arabia being awarded the hosting rights for the 2034
World Cup. Goretzka reiterated his opposition to this decision. He referred to
the previous World Cup held in Qatar, citing it as an example of a host country
with significant human rights concerns. Last year, Goretzka publicly expressed
his disapproval of Qatar hosting the World Cup and chose to withdraw from the
tournament as a means of expressing his dissatisfaction with the policies of
the host country. While Goretzka’s opinions are personal, his stance as a
world-class football star has garnered significant attention.
