Iran's national football team will relocate its training camp for the 2026 World Cup from Arizona, USA, to Tijuana, Mexico. This decision, confirmed by Mehdi Taj, president of Iran's football federation, comes amid escalating political tensions between Iran and the United States. The move reflects ongoing concerns regarding travel and security for the Iranian team, especially after several officials faced visa issues in the past. The agreement for the camp in Tijuana has received FIFA's approval, although the organization has yet to officially confirm the change. Iranian players are still set to compete in their group matches in the U.S., with games scheduled in SoFi Stadium, California, and Lumen Field, Seattle. The first match is against New Zealand on June 15. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum expressed her government's support for allowing the Iranian team to stay in Mexico during the tournament, stating, 'We have no reason to deny them the possibility of staying in Mexico.'
