Participating teams

Twelve football associations from four confederations (namely UEFA, CONMEBOL, CAF and AFC) confirmed their participation in the tournament.[3] On 10 February 2023, the Venezuelan Football Federation announced that Venezuela wouldn't attend the tournament due to the 2023 Turkey–Syria earthquake.[4] Two days later, the Jordan Football Association did the same.[5]
