Blatter, said he expected, Qatar's World Cup would be held in the winter, when the Middle East nation was controversially searing summer heat, despite the host of the event.
Although the winter World Cup would represent the world's most popular sporting event in the historic shift, the idea also brings Winter Olympic Games, which is considered to be a clash in the same year with the possibility.

"Has a number of key stakeholders that may be affected by such a clash, broadcasters and sponsors, including" the Walters added.
The potential impact of TV audiences would make them "less inclined to pay to participate in televising and related events, leading to a decrease in revenue, significant amounts," he explains.
Rogge claimed that the winter games could give up the usual slot is in the heart of the north sea, although FIFA WORLD kylmimpien Proposal seemed aimed at Qatar will enter into force on 1 January or December.
"We have a bracket is roughly the last week of the month of January and February, there is no way we organize games in December or March, Rogge said.

"Never had a reference to a date," the spokesman said, at the same time, the FIFA, that "expects that Qatar Blatter is a winter World Cup".
