The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has reached an agreement in principle for the 2025 Cup of Nations to be played in July and August next year in Morocco, according to a CAF official.

Earlier this month, CAF president Patrice Motsepe refused to confirm the dates of the next Africa Cup of Nations.

However, playing it in June and July next year would mean a clash with FIFA’s expanded Club World Cup, due to take place in North America.

Speaking on condition of anonymity, a member of the competitions committee said that there was “an agreement in principle between CAF and the Moroccan Football Federation for the AFCON to be held during the summer, more precisely in July and August” 2025.
