The United Kingdom has emerged as the sole valid bidder for the 2035 Women's World Cup, as revealed by FIFA president Gianni Infantino. The bid was made by England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland together, following FIFA's rotation rules making it mandatory for the tournament to occur in Europe or Africa for 2035. The formal bidding process will continue with the deadline for final bids set for later this year, and the confirmation vote scheduled for FIFA's congress in 2026. The UK hopes to enhance women's football through this prestigious event.
"We are honoured to be the sole bidder for the Fifa Women’s World Cup 2035. The hard work starts now to put together the best possible bid by the end of the year."
"Today I can confirm as part of the bidding process that we received one bid for 2031 and one valid bid for 2035; the 2035 bid is from Europe and the home nations."
