Fresh off 2025’s electrifying AFCON finale, African nations are already lining up shots at glory – not on the field, but in the boardroom. With the 2028 tournament now just two years away, countries are sprinting to craft winning bids for Africa’s biggest football stage ⚽.
🚨 New Era Alert: The 2028 games will debut CAF’s four-year tournament cycle – a major shift from the traditional two-year rhythm. This "Super AFCON" format means more time for infrastructure prep… and more pressure to deliver world-class venues!
While Morocco (tech-savvy stadiums) and Algeria (oil-backed budgets) lead early rumors, dark horses like Nigeria are making noise. "This isn’t just about football," CAF President Patrice Motsepe noted last week. "It’s about unlocking tourism, jobs, and continental pride."
📌 Pro Tip: Keep eyes on Botswana and Zambia – both recently upgraded transport hubs could make them surprise team players in joint bids!
With Kenya-Uganda-Tanzania’s 2027 co-hosting setting new standards, the 2028 race is shaping up to be Africa’s most competitive yet. Game on! 🌍🔥
