The FA’s board is still involved in ongoing conversations, according to insiders.
It has been proposed that ratification may be verified by acclamation rather than a usual vote, with federations that favor it being invited to cheer.
FIFA has not yet verified this, though, and FA representatives have asked for more information about the procedure.
The national football organization of Germany declared that it would support both the Saudi Arabian and multi-nation bids for the 2030 competition.
According to information obtained by the BBC, FA officials are aware of the human rights record of Saudi Arabia.
Some, meanwhile, are also leery of accusations of hypocrisy if the organization refuses to support the event but still takes part in it.
