AC Milan and many other European clubs, who rely on their important players from Africa, follow the situation of the AFCON closely as there is a lot of talk of postponement.
According to what is reported by SportMediaset, the African Cup could be postponed to September. Gianni Infantino, president of FIFA, had proposed to play it in that month and has now decided not to have the competition played from next January 9 in Cameroon.
The emergency CAF meeting in Doha produced this decision to avoid the overlap between the African Cup and the Club World Cup, scheduled for 3 to 12 February in the United Arab Emirates.
