The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) plans to announce the winner of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) by the end of November 2026. The decision will follow the hearing of the appeal by the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF) against the Confederation of African Football (CAF) and the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF).
The hearing took place on October 8, 2026, in a closed-door session at CAS headquarters in Lausanne. The panel has commenced their deliberations and will continue them, aiming to deliver a comprehensive ruling that includes legal grounds within a few weeks. CAF declared Morocco as the champions after a protest erupted during the final in Rabat, where several Senegalese players walked off the pitch following a penalty call against them.
