The 2025 Cup of Nations will be played in July and August 2025 in Morocco.

A member of the competitions committee told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity, 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.

“This agreement was found with the support of FIFA after talks that began several months ago and which intensified during the last edition which finished this month in Ivory Coast,” the source added.

Deji Ogunsola reports that qualifying for the 2025 AFCON is yet to start, as the preliminary round is due to be played next month.
