The President of the Confederation of African Football Patrice Motsepe has declared the 2023 African Cup of Nations remained the most profitable.
The football supremo made the declaration while speaking with France 24 and further stated that they are still targeting more improvement.
For the first time in the history of the competition, more viewers were generated to the tune of over 2 billions.
“The AFCON in Cote d’Ivoire has been the most profitable ever. We’ve made over USD 80 million. That’s the profit.
If we look at previous editions, we made around USD 4 million. So we’ve jumped to USD $80″, he said.
Morocco will stage the next edition of the competition and more profit is expected.
