The Confederation of African Football, (CAF), will conduct a new draw for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations on Sunday (today).
The draw ceremony will hold at the headquarters of Africa’s soccer ruling body in Cairo, Egypt.
CAF took the decision to conduct a fresh draw following Cote d’Ivoire’s withdrawal as hosts of the biennial competition.
The West African nation announced their withdrawal just weeks before the tournament’s scheduled kick-off.
Egypt , who hosted the last edition swiftly stepped in to host the competition.
The 13 qualified teams will be split into three pools, Group A with five teams, and Groups B and C with four.
The top two nations in each pool will advance to the quarter-finals, along with the two best third-placed sides.
