European authorities are planning to tighten the screws on betting activity on international sport following the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
After the conclusion of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with Spain emerging victorious, the Council of Europe is gearing up to implement stricter regulations on global sports betting. The tournament, which lasted four weeks and culminated in Spain's 1-0 win over Argentina, once again showcased its immense influence on the betting industry worldwide.
Recognizing the significant impact of major sporting events like the World Cup on betting activities, European regulators are aiming to introduce measures to enhance oversight and control in the post-tournament period.
