The 2023 Under-17 World Cup will no longer be held in Peru, according to a Monday (April 3) FIFA announcement, because that nation failed to complete the necessary infrastructure for the tournament.
FIFA, who had an extensive discussion with the Peruvian Football Federation before making the decision, promised to keep the tournament schedule on November 10-December 2, 2023.
"The Bureau of the FIFA Council will now designate a new host in due course," it added.
According to FIFA, Peru doesn't have enough time to get the investment and complete the necessary work before the tournament's start date.
