Potential Shift in 2026 WAFCON Hosting Arrangements Under Consideration.
According to reports from SABC Sport, South Africa's Deputy Minister of Sport, Arts and Culture, Peace Mabe, indicates that South Africa is being evaluated as a potential host nation for the 2026 Women's Africa Cup of Nations, should Morocco fail to proceed with hosting duties, with a mere 60 days until the tournament's commencement.
CAF confirmation is still pending.
This emerging development could be linked to the recent controversy surrounding the AFCON 2025 hosting arrangements, resultant AFCON sanctions, and the adverse online reaction from certain Moroccan supporters, although CAF has yet to release an official statement.
