Reports have indicated that Somali referee Omar Artan, a participant in the 2026 World Cup, was denied entry into the United States upon his arrival at Miami Airport, despite holding a visa, due to security concerns related to his background. American officials confirmed that the decision was made after routine security screenings, and he was deemed ineligible for entry during security checks, leading to his removal from the tournament officiating list. Artan expressed his gratitude for the support he received from FIFA and the Somali people, while the Somali government and the International Federation are continuing investigations into the circumstances of the incident.
