The 2026 World Cup, which Fifa will take to the United States, Canada and Mexico in common seat, it will be the first to be played with 48 teams, which implies modifications in the quotas for each Confederation.
Quotas for the World Cup
According to what has been reported since 2017, Europe would end up with 16 places, Africa with nine, Asia with eight, Conmebol and Concacaf with six each and Oceania, finally, would have a direct place.
There would remain two boxes, which will be played in an eliminatory tournament, with the participation of a team from each confederation, not counting UEFA, plus a selection from Concacaf, the confederation which will host this World Cup.
The format of this repechage would place the first two in the Fifa rankings directly in the semi-finals. The other four would meet in two keys. The winners will face the two seeds and the winners of this semi-final will go on to the World Cup.

In this way, South America would have the possibility of taking seven of its ten affiliated teams to this World Cup, if the seventh in the table wins this repechage. The hardest part will be staying outside.
