Due to be hosted by Saudi Arabia in November 2024,[1][2] the tournament was postponed to a later date due to security concerns arising from the 2024 Iran–Israel conflict.[3] In June 2026, it was announced that the tournament would be hosted by Jordan in July–August 2026.[4]
Safa, the defending champions,[4] are unable to defend their title following the team's dissolution in 2022.[5]
Al-Nassr achieved their first title, after defeating Al-Hilal of Syria 4–0 in the final.[6]
