U.S., Mexico Withdraw 2027 Women's World Cup Bid Ahead of FIFA Bangkok Meeting
Apr 29, 2024, 09:53 PM
The United States and Mexico have officially withdrawn their joint bid to host the 2027 FIFA Women's World Cup, opting instead to focus their efforts on securing the hosting rights for the 2031 tournament. This strategic shift, announced by the U.S. Soccer and the Mexican Football Federation, comes just weeks before FIFA's decision-making meeting in Bangkok, where the 2027 host will be selected. The withdrawal leaves Brazil and a joint bid from Belgium, Germany, and the Netherlands as the remaining contenders for the 2027 event. The decision to target the 2031 Women's World Cup is aimed at leveraging experiences from the upcoming 2026 men's World Cup and ensuring equal investment in the women's tournament, mirroring the financial commitment seen in men's competitions.
