Ethiopia and the Ethiopian Football Federation
25 August 2026
The Ethiopian Football Federation has announced its intention to bid to host the 2028 Africa Cup of Nations. The report says the tournament host remains undecided and CAF had not yet received an official bid at the time of publication.
Ethiopia previously staged the competition in 1962 and 1976 and won the title on home soil in 1962. The announcement puts Ethiopia forward as an early prospective host while Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania prepare to stage the 2027 edition.
