Hearts Kotoko

Ghanaian Football Giants, Kumasi Asante and Accra Hearts of Oak have been granted license for 22/23 Champions League, Confederation Cup edition.

This follows a successful Club Licensing Seminar hosted by CAF in Egypt, Cairo a fortnight ago that saw Member Associations, Leagues, FIFA and sister Confederations meet to discuss the roadmap for the licensing system in Africa.

A total of 58 clubs from 46 CAF member associations were licensed for the TotalEnergies CAF Champions League 2022-23 edition.

For the TotalEnergies CAF Confederation Cup 2022-23 edition a total of 50 clubs were granted a license at the level of their respective Member Associations and will take part in the competition.

Security Systems from Botswana decided to withdraw from the competition.

The granting of a licence to these Ghanaian clubs endorses that each club has met the requirements set in the CAF Club Licensing regulations.

According to CAF, ”the club licensing process for CAF club competitions is regulated through the different CAF codes and competition regulations, which state that all clubs (Licence Applicants) intending to participate in the CAF Interclubs competitions, must undergo the club licensing process with their respective Member Association (Licensor) and be granted a license by the competent decision-making bodies”.
