The project has been under study for several weeks. CAF President Patrice Motsepe had announced it. Now, the body is moving to the concrete phase by officially questioning the federations.

This consultation aims to gather the opinion of each member country. The final decision will depend on these responses. The international calendar could be modified if the project goes through.

The AFCON currently takes place every four years. A return to a biennial edition would change the game for African football.
