After hosting the men’s World Cup in 2010, South Africa intends to bid to host the women’s edition in 2027.” We would love to have the opportunity to roll out the red carpet once more in 2027 for the women’s tournament said Tebogo Motlanthe, director general of the South African Football Federation, to AFP on Tuesday.
South Africa had already applied to receive the 2023 edition, which will finally take place in Australia and New Zealand, before withdrawing. For 2027, it will compete with the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany, which have submitted a joint application.
