FIFA raise Tokyo 2021 age limits and postpone U20 and U17s
April 6 – As a consequence of the global health crisis, FIFA has taken a number of sweeping decisions that will reshape various age group tournaments.
The world federation has raised the age limit to 24 for the Olympic men’s football tournament in 2021 and postponed both the U-20 and U-17 Women’s World Cups later this year.
The postponement of the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games raised the prospect that some players would miss out on the men’s football tournament in 2021 due to the age limit.
