US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday Andrew Giuliani, son of former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, will serve as executive director of the presidential task force for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, to be hosted by the US, Canada and Mexico.

During Trump's first term, Andrew Giuliani served as a special assistant to the president and associate director of the Office of Public Liaison. Trump described him as a highly competitive golfer and person.

In the post on Truth Social, Trump also said Carlos Cordeiro, a FIFA senior advisor, will serve as a task force senior advisor.

The US will also host the first-ever Club World Cup from June 14 to July 13, which will take place across 11 cities.

"America will welcome the world," Infantino said of the US hosting the two international tournaments.

Infantino said the two events would bring almost $50 billion in economic output to the US and create almost 300,000 jobs.

Vance, who serves as vice-chair of the task force, said the group would do everything in its power to make the events successful.

"Of course, everybody is welcome to come and see this incredible event, I know we'll have visitors from close to 100 countries," Vance said.

"We want them to come, we want them to celebrate, we want them to watch the game but when the time is up, they'll have to go home, otherwise, they'll have to talk to (Homeland Security) Secretary (Kristi) Noem," he said.
