2017 CONCACAF Gold Cup

The 2017 CONCACAF Gold Cup is the 14th edition of the CONCACAF Gold Cup, a biennial international men's football championship of the North, Central American, and Caribbean region organised by CONCACAF. The tournament is being held from 7 to 26 July.

The winners of this tournament will play against the winners of the 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup in the 2019 CONCACAF Cup, a one-match play-off to determine CONCACAF's qualifier for the 2021 FIFA Confederations Cup. If the same team wins both the 2017 and 2019 Gold Cups, it automatically qualifies for the Confederations Cup.

Qualified teams
A total of 12 teams will qualify for the tournament. Three berths are allocated to North America, four to Central America, four to the Caribbean, and one to the winners of the play-off between the two fifth-placed teams of the Caribbean zone and the Central American zone. Bold indicates that the corresponding team was hosting the event.

1. This is Curaçao's first appearance since the dissolution of the Netherlands Antilles, as its direct successor (with regards to membership in football associations), inheriting the former nation's FIFA membership and competitive record.

2. French Guiana and Martinique are not FIFA members, and so do not have a FIFA Ranking.

Draw
The United States and Mexico were announced as the seeded teams of Groups B and C respectively on December 19, 2016. Honduras, the winners of the 2017 Copa Centroamericana title were announced as being the seeded team in Group A on February 14, 2017.

Squads
The 12 national teams involved in the tournament will be required to register a squad of 23 players; only players in these squads will be eligible to take part in the tournament.
