The Confederation Cup, the second-tier club competition for the Confederation of African Football, or CAF, is expected to be discontinued.
The African Cup Winners’ Cup and the CAF Cup combined to form the Confederation Cup in 2004.
African Football League was launched by CAF as a new competition last year.
There will be more teams added to the African Football League, which began with eight teams.
It will now be the continent’s premier club competition.
Africa’s second-tier club competition, the CAF Champions League, will replace the CAF Confederation Cup.
The African Football League champion will now play in the FIFA Club World Cup on behalf of the continent.
