CAF Secretary General Véron Mosengo-Omba has confirmed that including the Moroccan map on RS Berkane’s jerseys does not violate any of the Confederation’s regulations.
In an interview with BBC SPORT Africa, Mosengo-Omba clarified that CAF’s committee sees “no issue” with this matter.
“The CAF club committee believed, according to CAF regulations, there was no issue for this map,” Mosengo-Omba said, adding that a ruling from the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) will help guide the Confederation towards improving its regulations in the future.
This statement comes after Algerian club USM Alger’s withdrawal from their CAF Confederation Cup matches against RS Berkane, which led to USM Alger being deemed to have forfeited both matches with a 3-0 scoreline.
