Argentina’s governing body announces a joint bid to host the men’s 2035 Rugby World Cup in South America, with Argentina as the leading nation. The bid also involves Uruguay, Chile and Brazil, aiming to bring the tournament to the continent for the first time.
Planet Rugby and other outlets describe the move as a bid that will compete with World Rugby’s stated preference for a return to Europe. The reports frame the South American effort as part of a wider international competition for the event, with national federations presenting their case to host the quadrennial tournament.
Across the coverage, the shared details are that the bid is joint, that it is targeted at 2035, and that it covers multiple South American countries rather than a single host. Differences in emphasis are limited, with some outlets focusing more on the South American first-time objective, while others highlight the challenge posed by World Rugby’s Europe-focused outlook.
