Next summer’s Africa Cup of Nations tournament has been postponed until January 2024.

The next edition of the tournament had been announced for June 2023 due to the World Cup’s impact on the calendar, and was due to be held in the Ivory Coast.

Yet a CAF executive committee ruled today that AFCON would be pushed back by six months, due to traditional heavy rains in the country during the summer months.
