2023 AFC Champions League schedule, date, venue, format, & participating teams
The upcoming 2023/24 AFC Champions League is poised to become a significant and highly-watched event in the history of the tournament. Notably, numerous star players have made high-profile moves to Asian clubs, particularly in Saudi Arabia, adding considerable intrigue to various matches throughout the competition. Cristiano Ronaldo is set to pursue his first Asian continental title with Al Nassr, while Neymar is competing with Al Hilal, among other notable talents.
This tournament marks a departure from the calendar year schedule that has been in place since 2003, returning to the traditional club schedule from August to May after a hiatus of two decades. Additionally, it’s worth noting that this year’s competition will also be the final one in its current format. Next year, it will transition to a three-tiered competition structure similar to UEFA, which will result in a reduced field for the top-tier competition.
