Confederation of African Football (CAF) has announced the dates for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).

The tournament which will be hosted in Côte d’Ivoire, is set up to start June 23 and end July 23.

24 nations will participate in the continental masterpiece.

CAF has actually taken the choice to alter the date for AFCON from January to June, in order to give the groups adequate time to prepare.

Rwanda, whose only look in the competition was in 2004 in Tunisia, will be hoping to end the 19-year absence by qualifying for the greatest soccer feast on the continent.

The draws for the initial qualifiers will be announced on January 21, 2022.
