A team of CAF members is expected in the country next week Thursday to begin a three-day inspection of 2027 Africa Cup of Nations bid facilities.

Technical bid committee chairperson, Ashford Mamelodi said the itinerary of the delegation has not been shared. “The CAF team of inspectors is expected in Botswana for three days from July 20-22, 2023. Further details are awaited from CAF regarding the size and names of the PwC (PriceWaterhouseCoopers) delegation.

[The] Programme [is] also to be agreed with CAF,” Mamelodi said. The technical bid committee has travelled to Abidjan, Ivory Coast for the 45th CAF Ordinary General Assembly where they are expected to canvass for Botswana’s bid. The 2025 and 2027 AFCON bids were the subject of discussions during a CAF executive meeting in Morocco last week.
