AFCON-2025 Rescheduled To January-2026 Due To Club World Cup-Clash (Details)
The 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), originally scheduled to be held in Morocco in June 2025, will now take place in January 2026. The six-month delay is due to a scheduling conflict with the expanded 32-team Club World Cup, which is set to be played in the United States from June 15 to July 13, 2025.
CAF’s general secretary, Veron Mosengo-Omba, informed the BBC about the rescheduling, citing concerns over player welfare and the logistical challenges of players participating in both tournaments consecutively.
“For the men, we need to make sure that the dates that we’ll be choosing will be in the interests of the players. For this, we need to balance different aspects and also discuss with our partners and then we complete [the dates]. Scheduling is a nightmare for everybody,” Mosengo-Omba stated.
