Ellis: ‘Careful not to throw stones in glass houses’
Ex-USWNT coach criticises anti-LGBTQ+ legislation in US
Qatar said to be in talks to stage 2028 Women’s Club World Cup

Fifa’s chief football officer and former USWNT coach Jill Ellis has criticised anti-LGBTQ+ legislation in the United States and spoken of not wanting to “throw stones in glass houses” when discussing the prospect of Qatar hosting the 2028 Women’s Club World Cup.

The Guardian revealed earlier this month that the world’s governing body is in discussions about Qatar potentially staging the new tournament, which will be held from 5 to 30 January 2028. While Ellis said she had not heard of any such talks personally, she appeared to be open to the tournament being played in the Middle East.
