Besides something like insurance coverage not getting picked up for players, is there anything stopping everyone from pulling out of Qatar and holding a World Football Championship? Probably have to hold it in Europe since it's still football season the US.

That would be considered a "breakaway" and FIFA would raise holy legal hell over it.

I don't anything would be held, it'd have to be next summer but then it would be competing with the Women's World Cup and likely be a bad look. The clubs definitely wouldn't want it held during the winter.
 
"Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Denmark, Norway, Switzerland and Albania followed in the footsteps of England, Czech Republic, Sweden and Poland in refusing to face Russia at any level of international football."

If FIFA doesn't act, goodbye World Cup.
 
Unsurprisingly, FIFA may be doing a 180. I suspect some broadcasters and sponsors have been involved (Coke and Adidas I’d bet).
