“I would first like to thank HM King Mohammed VI, as well as the President of the Royal Moroccan Football Federation, Fouzi Lekjaa, and the Moroccan people. I am very proud of Morocco’s role in developing Football in Africa,” Motsepe told the press following the 2024 Women’s CAN draw, to be held in the Kingdom on July 5-26, 2025.

Praising Morocco’s sports infrastructure, which is also “available to Africa,” Motsepe stressed that the Moroccan model should be followed throughout the continent.

“I call on African countries to take as their model the partnership and cooperation between the various institutions in Morocco, in this case the government, the Royal Moroccan Football Federation and other stakeholders,” the CAF President said.

For his part, Lekjaa said that, once again, the Kingdom of Morocco, thanks to HM the King’s strategic and proactive vision, will host the African players in this continental competition.

“As per tradition, the players and the public will find in Morocco their second country to welcome their African brothers,” Lekjaa stressed.

From a sporting point of view, this edition is an opportunity for the Moroccan national team to demonstrate the great progress made in women’s soccer in Morocco, thanks to the High Royal Solicitude,” the Moroccan official said.   

President of the Confederation of African Football (CAF), Patrice Motsepe, said, on Friday in Rabat, that he is “very proud” of Morocco’s role in developing football in Africa.
