England and Scotland have been told to boycott the 2026 World Cup because of Donald Trump.
England and Scotland are set to take part in this year's World Cup, which is being hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico.
The Three Lions, led by Thomas Tuchel, take on Croatia, Ghana and Panama in Group L and Steve Clarke's team face Brazil, Morocco and Haiti in Group C.
England are among the favourites to win the competition, while it's Scotland first appearance at a World Cup since 1998.

Trump has been a prominent figure in USA's campaign for the World Cup and was presented with the inaugural FIFA Peace Prize at last month's draw ceremony.
The US president has come under fire for his recent actions, including launching a military invasion in Venezuela to capture the country's president Nicolas Maduro.
Trump has also been condemned by political leaders for his ambitions to take control of Greenland, with a person interrupting America's national anthem during London's NBA game with a pointed message to the controversial politician.
Sir Keir Starmer, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, stood up to Trump after he threatened tariffs against countries who oppose his attempt to take control of Greenland.
In the House of Commons, Conservative former minister Simon Hoare and Liberal Democrat Luke Taylor argued that the home nations should refuse to participate at the World Cup.
Both parliamentarians also proposed that King Charles III should cancel his scheduled state visit to the USA.
Hoare urged ministers 'to fight fire with fire', saying: "Now, that would be fine if we had an occupant of the White House who understood all of that and who respected all of that, but he laughs now, not just behind his hand, but blatantly in our faces as a result of that.
"Should the state visit go ahead this year? Should football teams play in American stadia for the World Cup? These are things which would embarrass the president at home. We now need to fight fire with fire."
Taylor added: "Diplomacy relies on rational actors, yet even in the last fortnight we have seen Donald Trump declare that he is not bound by international law, only his own morality.
"We are not dealing with a rational man. He responds only to shiny baubles, as we've seen with the incredible saga of the Nobel Peace Prize."
