The Champions Trophy, an annual football match in France between the winner of Ligue 1 and the Coupe de France, will be hosted in Gabon next season. The decision to hold the event in Libreville on August 3 is part of Ligue 1’s international development strategy, focusing on sub-Saharan Africa, which accounts for 30% of international TV rights revenue. The move is seen as an opportunity to strengthen ties between French football and African football, acknowledging the significant presence of African players in Ligue 1. Over 110 African players are currently playing in the French league.
