The International Federation of Association Football (FIFA) has announced Indonesia as the host of the 2023 U-17 World Cup, replacing Peru. Indonesia is capable of hosting a world-class event.
The appointment of Indonesia as the host of the FIFA U-17 World Cup was announced by FIFA after the FIFA Council meeting in Zurich, Switzerland.
In addition to appointing Indonesia as the host of the U-17 World Cup, FIFA also announced Colombia as the host of the 2024 U-20 Women's World Cup and Dominica as the host of the U-17 Women's World Cup.
Initially, the host of the youngest World Cup event was Peru. However, Peru then submitted its resignation on April 3, 2023 because their budget was prioritized for domestic needs such as economic recovery and natural disasters.
The schedule for the 2023 Under-17 World Cup is from November 10th to December 2nd.
The event will be attended by 24 teams from six confederations, such as Argentina, Brazil, Germany, Spain, and Morocco. Israel, a country that was previously denied entry to Indonesia, did not qualify for this event.
