The 2022–23 Premier League International Cup is the seventh season of the Premier League International Cup, a European club football competition organised by the Premier League for under-23 players.

Bayern Munich were the defending champions, after beating Dinamo Zagreb 2–0 in the 2018–19 tournament's final, with the tournaments in 2019–20, 2020–21 and 2021–22 all being cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Bayern Munich did not take part in this edition, guaranteeing a new champion.

The competition featured twenty-four teams: twelve from English league system and twelve invitees from other European countries. The teams were split into three groups of eight. The group winners, runners-up and two best third-placed teams, progress into the knockout phase of the tournament.[1]

All matches were played in England.[2]
