Some of Africa’s football club’s senior executives and club chairpersons will travel to Cairo, Egypt to attend the launch of the African Club Association (ACA) tomorrow.
The launch will be attended by a number of delegations including the CAF President, Dr Patrice Motsepe, at Marriot Mena House, Cairo, starting at 11h00.
The ACA meeting will be followed by a press conference to be addressed by CAF President together with ACA members to be streamed live on CAF platforms.
The ACA aims to bring together stakeholders from across the African football landscape, fostering collaboration, innovation, and excellence within the continent’s club football scene.
According to a CAF statement, the kick-off meeting between African Clubs and CAF President, Dr Motsepe, was held in October where Dr Motsepe briefed the African Club Chairmen about the formation of the African Clubs Association whose objectives includes protecting and promoting the interest of African football clubs, and ensures that African football clubs are commercially viable, globally competitive and profitable.
It also seeks to ensure that Referees, Match Commissioners and VAR operators were respected, credible, independent and world-class, and build partnerships with sponsors, the private sector and governments in order to build stadiums that comply with CAF and FIFA standards and other football infrastructures and facilities in each of the 54 CAF Member Associations.
It also aims to develop African youth talent, academies both for boys and girls and improve the quality of African Club football to be world class. — CAFonline.com
