The Confederation of African Football and the Saudi Football Association have announced that Saudi Arabia will host the 2023 African Supercup, scheduled for September 15. CAF General Secretary Veron Mosengo-Omba gave the news: "We are delighted to present the CAF Super Cup in a new territory in Saudi Arabia - a country that has made significant strides in world soccer. African soccer currently ranks among the best in the world, and it's only right that at a time when many international stars are heading for Saudi Arabia, African soccer should also be part of this movement. On behalf of CAF President Dr Patrice Motsepe, I would like to thank the Saudi soccer family for their cooperation, and we look forward to what will be an exciting CAF Super Cup."
