First heard this on the Guardian football podcast talking about the Euros and I couldn't believe it.
Can't wait to see Jamaica play in Greenland with my grandkids one day.

Greenland has applied to become a member of Concacaf, the governing body for soccer in North and Central America and the Caribbean, the Football Association of Greenland said on Tuesday.
Greenland would be the 42nd member of the continental association if approved.

Home to some 56,000 people, Greenland would surpass some existing Concacaf nations in population, including Anguilla and Montserrat.
"Through our connections among the existing member countries in Concacaf, we will expand our knowledge and network, so that we know what to prepare for with all national teams and club teams," said Rutkjaer.

That’s amazing. Missed opportunity not having home stadium way up north in the frozen tundra.

Can't wait to hear about how tough it is to play away at Greenland after the US gets a draw.

Playing surface and stadium is better than most current CONCACAF members

Something tells me that Greenland will never get to the point where they play us in Nations League or WCQ

If Iceland can qualify for Euros and WC in UEFA, Greenland can get to playing us in CONCACAF…

I think Iceland has about 10x the population.

Someone knows nothing about Greenland
ETA: Here was their latest squad called up, which was back in 2023: LINK
That roster includes a 41 year old defender who plays for a semi-pro team in Greenland.

Currently they aren't, but the whole point of them applying to be in CONCACAF is so they can get approved by FIFA.
