World Cup 2027: United States and Mexico leave

The Football Federation of USA and its Mexican counterpart have decided to abandon their joint candidacy to host the Women’s World Cup 2027 and said they will instead focus on trying to host the 2031 tournament. The decision leaves a proposal from Brazil and the joint proposal between Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium. They will compete to be elected in 2027 by the FIFA Congress, which will meet on May 17 in Bangkok.

“Hosting a World Cup tournament is a huge undertaking, and having additional time to prepare allows us to maximize its impact around the world,” USSF President Cindy Parlow Cone says in a statement. “Changing our bid will allow us to host an unprecedented Women’s World Cup in 2031 that will help grow and raise the level of women’s football both here at home and around the world.”

In detailing the bid in December, the USSF proposed American venues among the same 11 to be used in the 2026 men’s World Cup. Mexico listed Guadalajara, Mexico City and Monterrey, its three venues for the men’s World Cup, and also for 2027 listed as León and Querétaro possibilities.

“Returning our bid to 2031 will allow us to promote and prepare for the most successful Women’s World Cup in history,” MFF president Ivar Sisnieg said in a statement. “The strength and universality of our professional women’s leagues, together with our experience means that we will be able to provide the best infrastructure as well as an enthusiastic fan base that will make all participating teams feel at home and organize a World Cup that will contribute to the continued growth of American women’s soccer.”
