While CAF has accepted their declaration of interest, the road to hosting AFCON 2032 remains challenging, with infrastructure, finance and security all under scrutiny. Can the Sahel convince Africa that it is ready to stage the continent's biggest football tournament, or will ongoing security concerns stand in the way?
