Tunisia U20 granted spot in Egypt 2025 CAF U20 Africa Cup of Nations

The Tunisia U20 team has been granted a place in the upcoming 2025 CAF U20 Africa Cup of Nations, which will be hosted in Egypt from April 26 to May 18, 2025.

This decision follows the withdrawal of Ivory Coast from the tournament, leading to Tunisia’s inclusion in the competition.

CAF officially informed the Tunisian Football Federation (FTF) on Thursday that the U20 team would be allowed to compete in the prestigious tournament.

This comes after a formal request from the FTF to the governing body of African football, made at the end of March.

In their submission, the FTF argued that Tunisia, which had finished third in the qualifiers behind Morocco and Egypt, deserved the spot.

With Egypt being the host nation, it was automatically granted a place in the tournament.

The FTF’s request highlighted the fairness of awarding the third-place team, Tunisia, a spot in the competition, given the North African region’s hosting duties.

This development is a significant boost for Tunisia as the U20 Africa Cup of Nations doubles as a qualifier for the 2025 FIFA U20 World Cup, set to take place in Chile.

The semi-finalists of the tournament in Egypt will secure their places in the World Cup, adding extra significance to the competition for Tunisia, who now aim to make an impact on both continental and world stages.

The announcement has been met with enthusiasm from Tunisian football fans, who are eager to see their national team compete at a high level once again.

As the team prepares for the tournament, their focus will undoubtedly be on securing one of the four coveted World Cup qualification spots, which will require them to overcome stiff competition from some of the continent’s strongest youth teams.

Tunisia’s inclusion in the tournament marks a new chapter for the U20 side, and their participation will be keenly followed as they seek to prove their worth on African soil.
