Women’s World Cup: Home Nations to make joint bid to host 2035 tournament

The Football Associations of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales have expressed their intention to submit a joint bid to host the 2035 Women’s World Cup.

The announcement follows a decision by world governing body Fifa which recommended the tournament is hosted in Europe or Africa in that year.

Bids for the 2031 and 2035 finals will have to be submitted in the fourth quarter of 2025.

The United States are the favourites to host the 2031 tournament after pulling out of the vote for 2027, which was won by Brazil.
