All previous World Cup winners have been from Europe or South America. This will keep extending until a team that is not European or South American wins. Currently listing the top ten teams from the Men's Coca Cola rankings as options.

Morocco's pretty high on this one. One miracle World Cup run does not a great soccer nation make. (the Coca-Cola rankings are pretty heavily influenced by the 2022 run).
Also surprised Saudi Arabia wasn't suggested. The power of money in sports is great. They're basically hiring mercenaries from top soccer nations, can hire any top coach, and can spend as much as they need to on training
@EricBolton their current team looks completely Saudi born: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saudi_Arabia_national_football_team#Players
@m2 I stand corrected. I was thinking of Qatar: https://foreignpolicy.com/2022/12/16/team-qatar-wanted-immigrant-players-not-citizens/
Still wouldn't put it past Saudi Arabia to try a subtler version of this given the amount the country is willing to invest in soccer
