The 2025 AFC U-17 Asian Cup was the 20th edition of the AFC U-17 Asian Cup (including previous editions of the AFC U-16 Championship and AFC U-17 Championship), the biennial international youth football championship organised by the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) for the men's under-17 national teams of Asia.
On 24 May 2024, the AFC announced that Saudi Arabia would host the tournament. It was the first of the four consecutive AFC U-17 Asian Cup held in Saudi Arabia, preceding the 2026, 2027 and 2028 tournament, which also held in Saudi Arabia.
A total of 16 teams played in the tournament. The top eight teams of the tournament (all quarter-finalists) qualified for the 2025 FIFA U-17 World Cup in Qatar as the AFC representatives, besides Qatar who qualified automatically as the host.
Japan were the title holders, having won their fourth title in 2023. They were eliminated in the quarter-finals by Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia then lost the final to Uzbekistan, who also defeated them in the group stage, despite the latter having two players dismissed in the first half.
