\u201cI heard very worrying news from a coach from the UFOA region and a president of a federation from another region. Rumors at CAF headquarters and in Morocco indicate that the women\u2019s CAN will not take place this year. Well-informed sources at CAF headquarters in Cairo tell me that these speculations are true\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n

He further stated that there is total silence from the angle of the CAF president Patrice Motsepe and Morocco. \u201cI asked a spokesperson for the Royal Moroccan Football Federation to speak on this subject. I have not yet received a response regarding Morocco\u2019s official position on the issue\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n
