The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) has announced that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) won the hosting of the 2027 Asian Nations Cup, for the first time in its history, since its inception in 1956.
This came during the work of the 33rd Congress of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC), February 1, in the Bahraini capital, Manama.
Saudi Arabia was the only bid presented at the Congress in Manama after India’s withdrawal in December 2022.
It is note that Qatar will host the next edition of the Asian Football Cup, from June 26 to July 16, 2023.
