Youri Djorkaeff, football advisor to FIFA President Gianni Infantino, told Le Parisien in an interview that Trump should not refuse fans entry to watch the World Cup.
Would the grim international situation affect fans' visa acquisition?
As long as you hold a ticket, you can get an appointment to apply for a visa. The United States' interest lies in welcoming the world. It is hard for me to imagine Trump would deny anyone the chance to watch the tournament being held on his doorstep.

Yes, we worry about everything because we live in a world that forces us to stay vigilant. But the past three World Cups went very smoothly, didn't they?
France national football team's prospects
When I look at the squad list of this team, I cannot say we are not among the title favorites. After all, we reached the final of the last World Cup and won the one before that. We have accumulated quite a lot of experience.
