PARIS: FIFA’s plan to double the number of World Cups by holding the tournament every two years has received a “very positive response”", Arsene Wenger (pix), the man fronting the proposals, said on Thursday.

The former Arsenal manager is FIFA’s head of Global Football Development and has been pushing the idea for several weeks before holding a consultation with a group of around 80 former players and coaches in Doha, Qatar, this week.
