And local media revealed that Morocco is preparing to submit its candidacy to host this edition by preparing a strong file that enhances its abundant chances in order to obtain the honor of organizing the African football wedding.
“Sky News Arabia” learned that the Moroccan file is awaiting government approval in order to officially start the candidacy procedures.
And the Confederation of African Football opened the door to countries wishing to host the African Cup in the 2025 edition, after it decided to strip Guinea of organizing the tournament due to the lack of readiness of the infrastructure in the country.
Morocco hosted the African Nations Cup in 1988, while its organization was withdrawn from it in 2015 and was transferred to Equatorial Guinea, after it demanded its postponement due to the outbreak of the Ebola virus in parts of the continent at the time.
good fortune
A number of sports observers in Morocco are optimistic about the Kingdom’s ability to host the African Nations Cup, scheduled for 2025, due to several considerations:
- Sports critic and analyst, Mohamed El-Maghoudi, says that Morocco has all the capabilities and conditions that allow it to organize and make the 2025 African Cup of Nations a success.
- Al-Maghoudi confirmed in a statement to “Sky News Arabia” that Morocco’s success in hosting many sporting events and the experience it has gained in this field over the years, are among the points that support its file to embrace the CAN.
- The spokesman adds that “in addition to the important infrastructure and sports facilities that Morocco has, the stability experienced by the country remains one of the most prominent points recorded in the Kingdom’s favor.”
- The sports analyst indicates that “organizing these sports competitions on Moroccan soil will be an incentive for the initial national team to win the African Cup during the 2025 cycle, while on the other hand, it will contribute to promoting tourism to the Kingdom at the continental level.”
Important Infrastructure
A number of observers believe that Morocco’s submission of its candidacy to host the World Cup finals on more than one occasion has helped the country achieve great progress at the level of infrastructure, enabling it to receive the most important continental and global event.
Sports journalist Badr Al-Din Al-Idris confirms that Morocco has shown since 2018 its readiness to host the African Cup of Nations, after fulfilling all the conditions that allow it to host this tournament.
Al-Idrisi continues, in a statement to “Sky News Arabia”, that before the announcement of the withdrawal of the “Cannes” organization 2025 from Guinea, Morocco was preparing to run for the hosting of the 2027 edition, due to its organizational capacity and its full readiness to host such demonstrations.
The spokesman considers that “the Kingdom is at the forefront of the countries most fortunate to win the organization of these competitions, given the availability of stadiums with international specifications, equipped public facilities and reception facilities.”
For his part, sports analyst, Mohamed El-Maghoudi, stresses that if Morocco chooses to host the African wedding, it will be required, during the interval from the date of this event, to continue improving the infrastructure that will host the Kingdom’s guests during the period of African competitions.
