In an interview for France Info FIFA's deputy-general, Jérôme Valcke, claimed that the organization is planning to have the Qatar 2022 World Cup between the 15th November and the 15th January of 2023, instead of the traditional June and July.
"It will be played between November 15 and January 15 at the latest. If it's played between November 15 and the end of December, that is when the weather is most favorable."
This plans are due to the normal temperature in Qatar in the summer months being 50 degrees celsius, which would cause big handicaps for the player's performance, this because of the challenging of keeping hidration under physical workout with this temperatures, during 45 minutes.
FIFA claims to have already consulted with football deciders around the world and the opinion is favorable but the official calendar will only be revealed in December of 2014.
