He continued: “Besides, (French Football Federation) president (Noel) Le Graet came up with a proposal that went a bit unnoticed: of playing the FIFA Women’s World Cup every two years instead of four.
“This would generate benefits and momentum that fit exactly with what the women’s game needs right now. It is something we should put up for discussion.”
This year’s edition in France was a resounding success both on and off the pitch, with the USWNT clinching a successive title.
