The Confederation of African Football (CAF) officially announced on Thursday that Egypt will host the U-20 Africa Cup of Nations, following Ivory Coast’s withdrawal from organizing the tournament originally scheduled for next month.
Ivory Coast informed CAF of its decision to step down as host earlier, prompting the federation to swiftly seek a replacement. Informed sources revealed that Egypt was selected after a rapid evaluation of alternative hosting options, with the final decision confirmed today.
Egypt’s extensive experience in hosting continental and global sporting events positions it as an ideal choice to ensure the tournament’s logistical and operational success.
