AFC extends AFC Asian Cup 2023™ EoI deadline to July

AFC

The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) has extended the deadline to receive Expressions of Interest (EoI) from the AFC Member Associations (MAs) to host the AFC Asian Cup 2023™ from the original date of June 30, 2022, to July 15, 2022.

The AFC had issued an EOI invitation to the AFC MAs to host the AFC Asian Cup 2023™ on May 31, 2022. This followed China PR’s decision to withdraw as hosts of the AFC Asian Cup 2023™ and the consequent mandate provided to the AFC Administration by the 32nd AFC Congress 2022 to define the terms and requirements of an expedited bidding process to find a replacement host for the competition.

Following the conclusion of the bidding process, the AFC Administration will submit a report with its recommendations to the AFC Executive Committee, which will then select the new host of the AFC Asian Cup 2023™.
