The 2023 FIFA U-17 World Cup will be the 19th edition of the biennial international men's youth football tournament contested by the under-17 national teams of the member associations of FIFA. It will be held from 10 November to 2 December 2023.[1][2]

This edition marks the return of the tournament after a 4-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic forcing FIFA to cancel the 2021 edition.[1]

Brazil are the defending champions, having won their 4th title in 2019.

Host selection

Further information: 2021 FIFA U-17 World Cup § Host selection

Peru were announced as the 2021 U-17 World Cup hosts following a FIFA Council meeting on 24 October 2019 in Shanghai, China.[1]

After the 2021 edition was cancelled, Peru was awarded the hosting rights of the next edition in 2023.[1]

However, after extensive discussions between the Peruvian Football Federation and FIFA on the hosting suitability of Peru caused by its infrastructural defects, Peru withdrew as hosts on 3 April 2023, with FIFA announcing an immediate opening of a replacement hosting rights tender.[3]

Venues

Qualified teams
