South Africa will bid to stage the 2027 Fifa Women's World Cup, hoping to bring the event to Africa for the first time, Report informs via BBC.
South Africa was the first - and so far only - country on the continent to host the men's World Cup in 2010.
Almost two years ago, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany launched a joint bid for the 2027 competition, and that will be among the South African proposal's principal rivals.
A joint Scandinavian bid has also been floated, but with Denmark, Norway, Finland, and Sweden bidding together to host the 2025 European Championship, the continental tournament could take precedence.
Those four countries had previously explored a bid for the 2027 World Cup alongside Iceland and the Faroe Islands.
