28 players for AFCON
CAF is allowing 28 players to be registered for AFCON because of the Covid crisis.
The extra 5 players are not mandatory, and the bill (flight and lodging) must be covered by each FA.
Subs during matches will remain at 3, with 1 extra sub allowed in extra time matches.
This is a very welcome development and we should take full advantage in order to help build the team for the upcoming world cup playoffs and world cup proper should we qualify.
Suddenly Musas presence in the team will not be as wasteful, and when he is surrounded by far superior options, Rohr is likely to not play him very much at all.
This would be a chance to call in players like Sadiq, Alhassan Yusuf, Amoo, hopefully Lookman and Ejaria.

The European clubs will not be happy.
For instance a team like Watford may now have to lose a guy like Dennis, when they certainly wouldn't with a 23 man squad.

Re: 28 players for AFCON
Expect 23 players cos of lack of funds and or Iggy on the list along with defenders. This is the **** way.
