Qualification was made up of 6 sub-confederation qualifying tournaments which commenced on 12 August within COSAFA for Southern Africa and the CECAFA for mostly East Africa and a bit of Central Africa. Qualification ended on 14 September with the participating teams reduced to the final 8 which consisted of one winning team each from the 6 CAF sub-confederations (WAFU is split into two zones), the tournament's defending champions and the host nation's league-winning team. These 8 teams would proceed to the main tournament phases, which will be held in Ivory Coast.[1]
Participating teams
All participating teams qualified for the qualification phase via winning their respective national league titles and had their club licensing applications accepted by CAF. A total of 37 (out of 54) countries have a participant club in this edition.[2]
