The 2020 CONMEBOL Pre-Olympic Tournament will be the 13th edition of the CONMEBOL Pre-Olympic Tournament, the quadrennial international age-restricted football tournament organised by CONMEBOL to determine which men's under-23 national teams from the South American region qualify for the Olympic football tournament.

In August 2018, CONMEBOL announced the return of the South American Pre-Olympic Tournament in 2020 with Colombia as the host country, after 16 years of absence.[1] The last edition of this competition had been held in Chile in 2004. From the 2008 to the 2016 Summer Olympics, the two teams from South America were determined by the South American Youth Football Championship, always held in the previous year. The tournament will be held between 18 January and 9 February 2020.[2]

The top two teams will qualify for the 2020 Summer Olympics men's football tournament in Japan as the CONMEBOL representatives.[3]

The hosts Colombia and Brazil as the current Olympic champions and best CONMEBOL team on the FIFA Ranking (October 2019) were seeded into Group A and Group B respectively and assigned to position 1 in their group, while the remaining eight teams were placed into four "pairing pots" based on the FIFA World Rankings of October 2019 (shown in brackets),[7] the position of these 8 teams within their group was also defined by draw.[8]

Seeded Pot 1 Pot 2 Pot 3 Pot 4
  •  Colombia (10) (Hosts, assigned to A1)
  •  Brazil (3) (Olympic champions holders, assigned to B1)

The draw was led by Hugo Figueredo, competition director of CONMEBOL, who had the collaboration of the former colombian footballer Iván Valenciano and Daniela Montoya, member of the Colombia women's national football team.[8]
