The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has issued a statement categorically denying a false report circulating online. The fabricated story claimed CAF had invalidated Senegal's victory in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) and awarded the title to Morocco.
CAF's communication department confirmed to fact-checking agencies that no such decision was made or even discussed. The 2025 AFCON tournament, won by Senegal, concluded successfully, and the results stand as officially recorded.
The source of the false claim appears to be a satirical or fake news website. CAF urges the public and media to rely only on official CAF channels for accurate information regarding its competitions and decisions.
