Zapping World Eleven Cristiano Ronaldo: Record numbers
On January 13, the 2023 African Cup of Nations will open its doors and with less than two months before the competition, the rules are changing! Indeed, just a few weeks ago, the decision seemed to have been made regarding the lists of those selected. 23 players were to make up the different selections but obviously, the African Football Confederation reversed this decision.
27 players in the selection lists, not 23
In comments relayed by Sport News Africa, the president of the Ivorian football federation, Idriss Diallo, announced the CAF decision. “CAF has given us the information that the selections can take up to 27 players for CAN 2023.” A decision taken due to the dissatisfaction of many selectors who would have stepped up to the plate.
