The Asian Football Confederation has begun reviewing candidates to host the AFC Asian Cup 2031, the continent’s most prestigious football tournament. In recent years, due to the reforms in football being carried out in Central Asia, the improved conditions, and the growing international reputation, the football associations of Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyz Republic, confident in their ability to host the Asian Cup at a high level, have jointly put forward their candidacy.

Today, Uzbekistan, along with its neighboring countries, is fully prepared to host this prestigious tournament. In cities such as Tashkent, Namangan, Fergana, and Karshi, stadiums have been renovated in accordance with international standards. Additionally, in recent years, hosting the U20 and U23 Asian Cup, as well as the FIFA Futsal World Cup, has provided invaluable experience. As always, Central Asia is ready to capture the attention of all of Asia with its hospitality, professional approach, dedication to football, and, of course, the passion of its football-loving fans.
