Moroccan Football Federation's Stance on CAN 2025 Proceedings
The Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) has decisively rejected a request from its Senegalese counterpart for an expedited handling of the 2025 African Cup of Nations (CAN) case before the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). This refusal is not arbitrary; it is based on a strict interpretation of CAS regulations, particularly Article R44.4, which stipulates that any acceleration of procedures requires the consent of all involved parties. By opting for a more extended timeline, the Moroccan federation ensures a thorough investigation, which includes the testimony of key witnesses such as referee Jean-Jacques Ndala and members of the teams present during the final held at the Moulay Abdellah Complex in Rabat.
