The 2023–24 AFC Champions League is the 42nd edition of Asia’s premier club football tournament organized by the Asian Football Confederation (AFC), and the 21st under the current AFC Champions League title.
This edition sees an increase in numbers of preliminary players with 35 players able to be registered; teams will be able to field six foreign players in games, where one of these players must still be from another Asian nation.
The winners of the tournament will automatically qualify for the 2024–25 AFC Champions League, entering at the qualifying play-off stage, if they have not already qualified through their domestic performance.
