Egypt wins hosting rights for Africa U-23 Championships
Egypt has announced its hosting of the 2027 Africa Under-23 Cup of Nations, which serves as the qualifier for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. The tournament will feature eight teams, with the winner and runner-up qualifying directly for the Olympics. The competition is scheduled for November 2027, with Egypt automatically participating as the host nation, while the other teams will compete for the remaining spots during qualifiers starting in September 2026. Africa’s direct qualification spots have been reduced from three to two, increasing the importance of the final matches, as only the winner and runner-up will qualify directly for the Olympics. Hosting the tournament underscores Egypt’s capability and the strength of its sports infrastructure to organize major continental championships.
