A Sigma Dos poll for El Mundo following the Ceuta crisis found that 84.4% of Spaniards opposed Spain continuing to co-host the World Cup with Morocco.

That is correct. According to a Sigma Dos poll published by El Mundo, 84.4% of Spaniards rejected co-hosting the 2030 FIFA World Cup with Morocco following a severe migration crisis in the Spanish enclave of Ceuta.

The poll reflects a massive domestic shift in public opinion toward the joint tournament structure due to geopolitical and logistical developments:

  • The Ceuta Crisis Catalyst: Public sentiment soured significantly after a border surge in late July saw tens of thousands of migrants cross into Spain's North African territory. Close to 90% of respondents in related polling blamed Morocco for stoking the crisis, transforming the joint sporting bid into a highly sensitive political issue.
  • Broad Political Alignment: The rejection crossed standard partisan lines. Left-wing junior coalition partner Sumar led parliamentary efforts declaring that the World Cup "cannot be shared with a country that uses desperate people for its own geostrategic interests"—a stance that far-right opposition party Vox also backed.
  • The Battle for the Final: This domestic pressure has re-entered the political spotlight via Spain's snap election campaign. Alberto Núñez Feijóo, leader of the conservative People's Party and front-runner for Prime Minister, stated on El Chiringuito that Spain should entirely withdraw from organizing the World Cup if its neighbor is awarded the tournament final over Spanish venues like the Santiago Bernabéu or Camp Nou
