The World's Stage. AR Elite Players.
AR Elite competes at the Gothia Cup — the world's largest international youth football tournament, played each summer in Gothenburg.
International Football, Played Properly.
Gothia Cup brings together more than 1,700 teams from across the world for a week of football, culture and competition. AR Elite players represent the academy on this global stage every year.
Players test themselves against international opposition, in front of scouts, in a true tournament environment — group games, knockouts and finals at scale.
It is one of the defining experiences in any young footballer's development — and it is part of what makes the AR Elite pathway different.
