The 2023 UEFA European Under-17 Championship (also known as UEFA Under-17 Euro 2023) was the 20th UEFA European Under-17 Championship (39th edition if the Under-16 era is also included), the annual international youth football championship organised by UEFA for the men's under-17 national teams of Europe. Hungary was hosting the tournament.[2] A total of 16 teams are playing in the tournament, with players born on or after 1 January 2006 eligible to participate.
Same as previous editions held in odd-numbered years, the tournament acted as the UEFA qualifiers for the FIFA U-17 World Cup. The top five teams of the tournament qualified for the 2023 FIFA U-17 World Cup in Indonesia as the UEFA representatives.
France, having won the title in 2022, entered as the title holders, reached the final match but lost to Germany, who won their fourth title.
For the UEFA European Under-17 Championship final tournaments of 2023 and 2024, Hungary and Cyprus were selected as hosts respectively.[2]
