The Football Association (FA) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Qatar Football Association (QFA) for exploring the possibilities of arranging friendlies across various age groups.

The Gulf state will host the 2022 World Cup and FA chairman Greg Clarke said he is pleased to share the partnership with QFA. "The FA is pleased to commit to this knowledge-sharing partnership with the Qatar Football Association."

"We have a long history of collaboration with various national associations to share knowledge and experience to support the development of football.

"For Qatar, developing the game across the country is a key objective as they approach the hosting of the Fifa World Cup in 2022," Clarke was quoted as saying by The Guardian on Wednesday.
