Togo’s national football team, the Hawks, will not feature in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) following a disappointing qualification campaign. Securing only five points and a third-place finish in their group, the team’s elimination has prompted the Togolese Football Federation (FTF) to announce a strategic meeting of its Executive Committee.
In a statement shared on its platforms, the FTF highlighted the need for a comprehensive review of the team’s performance, tactical decisions, and challenges faced during the qualifiers.
This evaluation will be essential to learn the lessons needed for future improvement, the Federation declared, emphasizing the importance of rigorous analysis before implementing reforms.
The meeting is expected to focus on key areas such as the technical management of the Hawks and the strategic direction required for upcoming competitions.
According to the FTF, the goal is to rebuild a foundation for a more dynamic and competitive national football system.
The development of football is a collective effort and depends on the commitment and cooperation of all stakeholders, the Federation added, calling for patience and unity from fans and partners alike.
Despite the recent setback, the FTF expressed determination to transform this disappointment into an opportunity for growth.
While no specific date for the meeting has been disclosed, its outcomes are anticipated to shape the future of Togolese football and the prospects of the Hawks in upcoming tournaments.
