The football body last week announced that the draw for the 35th edition of the tournament will take place on the 20th of February, 2024.

According to the update from Cairo, the headquarters of the body, the Mambas of Mozambique and the Scorpion of Gambia will not participate in the preliminary round of the qualifier.
