The African Cup of Nations kicks off this Saturday in Ivory Coast. Among the competing nations, 38 players who have passed through the Maurice Revello Tournament will be taking part in this prestigious competition. Here's the full recap.

Who will be the next African champion? That's what's at stake at the 2024 Africa Cup of Nations. Organised in Ivory Coast, the competition promises to be more exciting than ever. With 38 former participants taking part, the Maurice Revello Tournament will be strongly represented.

As hosts of the competition, Ivory Coast are naturally among the favourites for this year's event. The Elephants have the most players who have taken part in the Maurice Revello Tournament: from Jean Amani and Ibrahim Sangaré to Sébastien Haller and Franck Kessié, there are a total of 8 in the squad.


Among the favourites are Morocco, the first African nation to reach the semi-finals of the World Cup just one year ago. The team coached by Walid Regragui includes 3 former participants in the Tournament, including goalkeeper Yassine Bounou, a hero at the last World Cup.


Holders of the title, Senegal are also a major threat. Led by their captain Kalidou Koulibaly, the Lions of Teranga will be aiming to do the double, and will be able to count on 4 former Tournament.


Ahmed Hegazy's Egypt, with their experience of these major tournaments, are also a nation that can claim the final title. Finally, among the outsiders, Rayan Aït-Nouri's Algeria, Olivier Kemen's Cameroon, Moses Simon's Nigeria, Mouez Hassen's Tunisia and Chancel Mbemba's Congo will be teams to keep a close eye on.
