Radio Foot Internationale with the summary this Wednesday 4:10 p.m. UT: – CAN 2025 and 2027: Morocco, alone in the running, designated host country for the final phase in 2 years! The members of the Comex opted for the Cherifian kingdom, after the withdrawals of Zambia and Algeria, and the postponement of the candidacy of the Nigeria-Benin duo. – An East African trio will organize the competition in 2027. Kenya-Uganda-Tanzania, has the synergy of a 3-way organization convinced? None of these nations have hosted the tournament yet.

– This is the 2nd time that Morocco, the only one in the running, has been named host country for the final phase in 2 years. Morocco is designated after 1988. With the organization of the Club World Cup, it already has adequate infrastructure, several nations have played qualifying matches on its soil. – Why did Algeria withdraw? A candidate for both editions, it also has the necessary infrastructure! The new president of the FAF wants to concentrate his efforts on the “reorganization and revitalization of local football”

– Women’s CAN, favorites on the mat! The return leg of the 1st round of the qualifiers for the next edition (in Morocco), fatal to the Cameroonians, eliminated by the Kenyans. The Harambee Starlets deprived them of a final phase for the first time in almost 30 years! Also absent from the recent World Cup, should we be worried about the Lionesses? First round also fatal to the Ivorians, exited by Tanzania.

– The discord clip! A video posted by Napoli which ridicules Victor Osimhen is controversial, after the striker missed a penalty in Bologna. Nothing is going well between the Nigerian and the Partenopei. Will this unfortunate incident push the “capocannoniere” from last season to go and prove himself elsewhere?

With Annie Gasnier today, Nabil Djellit, Benjamin Moukandjo and Frank Simon. – Technique/production: Laurent Salerno — Preparation: Pierre Guérin.
