In an interview with French sports newspaper L'Equipe published on Friday, former Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger urged for the World Cup to be hosted every two years.

The 71-year-old Frenchman, who is currently FIFA's director of development, has proposed a single yearly season of international qualifiers in a global football calendar.

"The principle would be a grouping of qualifiers every year, and at the end of the season a major competition, World Cup or continental championship," said Wenger.

"Between the two qualifying windows, the player would stay in his club all year round.

"There must be less of a mix in the calendar between the periods of club football and periods of international football, and therefore fewer transcontinental trips for the players, for example."
