CAF Allows Burkina Faso, Mali & Niger to Bid for AFCON 2032: Statement The Confederation of African Football (CAF) President Patrice Motsepe welcomed the three-country initiative during a Saturday working meeting in New York, describing it as an important step toward securing AFCON hosting rights, according to a press release.ℹCAF opened bidding for the 2028, 2032, and 2036 AFCON editions earlier this month, requiring a detailed hosting plan from contenders. A win would give Mali its first AFCON since 2002, and first-ever hosts Niger and Burkina Faso.AI-generated imageSubscribe to @sputnik_africa Sputnik Africa | X
