The 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), originally slated for Morocco, has been postponed to January 2026.
This delay of six months comes as a result of a scheduling conflict with the expanded 32-team Club World Cup. CAF’s general secretary, Veron Mosengo-Omba, cited concerns over player welfare amidst consecutive tournaments and emphasized the need for careful consideration in scheduling. The decision underscores the complex challenges facing global football calendars.
