The Football Association's football manager Kim Källström cannot emphasize enough the importance of the national team reaching the World Championship finals in North America next summer. I have myself played in the World Championship and do not think that there is anything finer than representing one's country in a World Championship, he says to Viaplay.

Not least economically, a World Championship participation strengthens the association's funds considerably.

It is a bit divided, the economic part is measurable. We know that if we make it to the World Championship, we will get a really nice sum of money that we can invest in our football, says Källström ahead of the World Championship qualifier against Slovenia in Ljubljana.

Källström continues:

What cannot be measured properly is what it means for football, for interest, for how many guys and girls who want to develop and continue playing football.

Källström played the World Championship for Sweden in Germany 2006.

The World Championship qualifying premiere kicks off at 20.45.
