President Donald Trump revealed that his youngest son Barron will be attending at least some of the FIFA World Cup matches this year. The World Cup will be hosted at 12 stadiums across the U.S. starting June 14 and ending July 13 in dozens of matches between the world's biggest soccer clubs. Of the lengthy line-up in the tournament schedule, Trump said in the Oval Office on Tuesday that Barron, 19, will be attending some and suggested he will be joining in on the festivities surrounding the international competition. 'These events will attract millions of passionate fans around the world, including my son. I have a son that loves soccer – Barron,' Trump said. He then joked with the room: 'Nobody's ever heard of Barron, right? Have you ever heard of Barron? He's a good soccer player, too.' 'He's a little tall for soccer, but that's OK,' the president conceded. At 6'7', the New York University business school student towers over the rest of his family. Unlike Trump's first term in office, Barron is no longer seen alongside his parents at all times. Instead he remains in New York City where he is pursuing an undergraduate degree. 'This will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to showcase the beauty and the greatness of America, and we can't wait to welcome soccer fans from all over the globe,' Trump said of the upcoming World Cup matches. His comments came during a meeting at the White House on Tuesday alongside the planning task force Trump assembled to prepare for the event. Several Cabinet members are on the panel, including Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy. Both spoke at Tuesday's meeting about initial preparations for the massive event. Swiss-Italian head of the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) Gianni Infantino spoke at the White House on Tuesday. The president also called out his middle son Eric Trump, 41, at Tuesday's gathering. He claimed that Eric and Barron always correct him from saying 'soccer' and tell him to call it 'football' like the rest of the world. 'I don't know if I'm supposed to say soccer or football because every time I say soccer Barron and Eric say 'you're really saying it wrong, it's supposed to be football.' But we know it as soccer,' Trump said. The opening match of this year's World Cup is set to kick off next month at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida and the final is scheduled for MetLife Stadium right outside of New York City.
