Argentina will host the upcoming 2023 Under-20 World Cup, rather than Indonesia, which was removed by FIFA, the world football governing body has announced.
The Bureau of the FIFA Council on Monday confirmed the decision after the Argentinian Football Association (AFA) submitted a subsequent bid and a FIFA delegation inspected the South American country last week.
The FIFA U20 World Cup will kick off on May 20 and the final will be held on June 11.
It will be for the first time when Argentina hosts the tournament since 2001.
The official draw of the FIFA U20 World Cup will take place on April 21 at FIFA’s headquarter in Zurich.
