The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has stipulated that participating teams at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco must submit their squad lists at least 10 days before the tournament’s start.
Failure to comply with the legislation means that defaulting teams will be fined $10,000.
Furthermore, only 18 players from each squad will be permitted to travel within cities for matches by plane, road, or train.
