The agreement gives Aramco sponsorship rights for the men's World Cup in 2026 and the women's World Cup in 2027. The partnership raises questions about climate impact, given that Aramco is one of the world's biggest emitters of greenhouse gases. Environmental groups criticize Fifa's decision to partner with a major polluter.
