The remaining 4 days of the World Cup, Iran’s visa entanglement continues, the US does not get access!

Not one, not two, but a dozen Iranian football owners, the United States government blocked their visas! They decided to visit USA, Mexico and Canada to watch the 2026 World Cup. The whole incident has become a commotion four days before the start of the World Cup. It should be noted that Donald Trump’s government has granted visas to Iranian national team footballers after a massive scandal.

According to the news of the Iranian news agency “Tasnim” on Saturday, the US Immigration Department has canceled the visas of 12 to 14 Iranian officials. The ‘victims’ have decided, for now, they will go to Mexico with the national team. From there re-apply for US visa. According to reports, these officials include Iran Football Federation Secretary General Hedayat Mombeini and Vice President Mehdi Mohammad Nabi. Several support staff of the national team also did not get visas.

It should be noted that the US administration has been struggling for a long time to give visas to Iranian footballers. Just five days before the start of the World Cup, Iran’s footballers got their visas. A White House official said visas have been approved for all members of the Iran team. “All Iranian footballers, coaches and support staff have been granted visas after completing the application process. They have been informed about this,” he said. Soon after it came to light, visa applications of many officials were rejected.

Why such harassment is easy to imagine. Iran has been at war with the United States and Israel since last February. whose excitement has not subsided yet. Iran is currently planning to build a base in California, USA. Due to the war situation with America, Iran moved its base camp from Trump’s country to Mexico. Note that Iran is in the ‘G’ group in the World Cup. Their opponents are New Zealand (June 16), Belgium (June 22) and Egypt (June 27). All three matches will be played in America.
