US and Mexico withdraw joint bid to host 2027 FIFA Women's World Cup

The US Soccer Federation and the Mexican Football Federation have withdrawn their joint bid to host the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup. They will instead focus on a bid for the 2031 edition of the tournament, aiming for equal investment as the Men’s tournament. This decision leaves two remaining bids for the 2027 tournament from Brazil and a joint bid from Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany. The winning bid will be announced at the 74th FIFA Congress in May. The US and Mexico federations’ announcement was made to allow more time for preparation and maximize the impact of hosting the event.
