Russia had launched a formal bid to host the 2018 and 2022 FIFA World Cups. The country is ready to spend some $10 billion on the tournament. The bid committee also includes RFU CEO Alexei Sorokin and Alexander Djordjadze as the Director of Bid Planning and Operations. Fourteen cities are included in the current proposal, which divides them into five different clusters: one in the north, centered on St. Petersburg, a central cluster, centered on Moscow, a southern cluster, centered on Sochi, and the Volga River cluster. Only one city beyond the Ural Mountains is cited, Yekaterinburg. The other cities are: Kaliningrad in the north cluster, Podolsk in the center cluster, Rostov-on-Don and Krasnodar in the south cluster and Yaroslavl, Nizhny Novgorod, Kazan, Saransk, Samara and Volgograd in the Volga River cluster. The country does not currently have a stadium with 80,000 capacity, but Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, already a UEFA Elite stadium, has a capacity of over 78,000 and can easily be expanded to meet that figure. Russia hopes to have five stadia fit to host World Cup matches ready by 2013 – two in Moscow and one stadium each in St. Petersburg, Kazan and Sochi, which is due to host the 2014 Winter Olympics.
