FIFA has announced that the draw for the 2025 Arab Cup and the U17 World Cup will take place in Doha on Saturday, 24 May. The event will be held at a luxury hotel in the Qatari capital, coinciding with the final of the Emir Cup. Representatives from 16 Arab nations and all 48 countries qualified for the U17 World Cup will be in attendance. The ceremony will run from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Moroccan time. The Arab Cup is scheduled from 1 to 18 December and will conclude on Qatar's National Day. The U-17 World Cup will be staged earlier, from 3 to 27 November. Qatar is hosting the Arab Cup for the second consecutive time, following a successful edition in 2021, when Algeria beat Tunisia 2-0 in the final. This year's competition sees increased prize money and is expected to draw large crowds. Iraq top the all-time winners list with four titles, ahead of Saudi Arabia (2), while Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco (2012) have one each. Morocco have been drawn in Pot 1 alongside Egypt, Algeria and hosts Qatar. The Atlas Lions reached the semi-finals in 2021 before losing to Algeria on penalties. Several Arab nations will also take part in the U17 World Cup, including Morocco, Egypt, Tunisia, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and host nation Qatar. Germany are the defending champions after beating France on penalties back in 2023 when the game ended in a 2-2 draw. Tags: Arab CupMoroccoMorocco national teamu17 afconU17 MoroccoU17 world cup
