Patrice Motsepe officially announces his candidacy for a new term. “The President of CAF, Patrice Motsepe, has decided to run for the CAF presidency election in March 2025,” states CAF on its official website.
The CAF statement highlights that “this candidacy follows numerous requests from member association presidents, zonal union leaders, and key stakeholders in African football.”
For context, Patrice Motsepe was elected president of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) during the 43rd elective general assembly held in Rabat in March 2021.
With the removal of the age limit, Motsepe can expect strong competition, particularly from influential figures in African football, including Egyptian Hany Abou Rida, who has been reported as a favorite by the Egyptian media.
