Saudi Arabia won the bid to host the Asian Cup 2027 following deliberations during the 33rd Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Congress in Bahrain on Wednesday.
The AFC Executive Committee shortlisted the All India Football Federation (AIFF) and the Saudi Arabian Football Federation (SAFF) as the final bidders to host the Asian Cup 2027. However, the AIFF withdrew their bid from the host selection process in December which eventually left Saudi Arabia as the only bidder for the hosting rights.
