This decision was made after a worldwide call for proposals to host both competitions. The focus was on making use of the existing football infrastructure to ensure the tournament is efficient and sustainable.
Additionally, starting from 2025, Morocco will host the FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup annually. The tournament has been expanded to 24 teams.
