“This historic decision is a clear indication of the special attention and care to sports”

“According to the decision of the FIFA Council, the 2027 FIFA U-20 World Cup Finals will take place in Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan.

This important and historic decision is a clear indication of the friendly relations between the heads of state, the policies aimed at the welfare and development of the countries, as well the special attention and care shown to sports in both countries.

I would like to express my gratitude to FIFA President Gianni Infantino and the members of FIFA Council for their support.”
