Zambia (potentially with Botswana) – After nine failed attempts at winning a bidding process for the Africa Cup of Nations, including most recently for 2027,
Zambia wants to bid for a tenth time.[2] A possibility to co-host with
Botswana has been mentioned.[3] Zambia has never hosted AFCON, but they were stripped of the
1988 edition due to financial reasons.[4]
Notes: The 2021 and 2023 tournaments were actually held in 2022 and 2024 respectively. • There were no 1957 and 1959 qualifications as places were given by invitation only. • The "finals" articles for 1959 and 1976 are about the decisive matches of final group stages. Football in Africa portal
