CAS reveal date for the Morocco vs Senegal AFCON 2025 final verdict

CAS has confirmed the date for the verdict on the Morocco vs Senegal AFCON 2025 final hearing, according to reports.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport has scheduled May 7 as the date to announce its verdict in the dispute surrounding the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations final.

Senegal is expected to argue that procedural issues and potential violations of competition rules may have impacted the outcome of the final. Their appeal is part of a wider attempt to have the result reassessed and possibly reversed.

Morocco, meanwhile, has assembled a comprehensive legal response, insisting that the decision reached by Confederation of African Football was in line with the governing regulations.

Their defence is reportedly backed by match evidence and official records submitted during previous reviews, with Morocco’s legal representatives said to be optimistic about a positive ruling.

The upcoming hearing is seen as a major moment for African football, as the outcome could shape how future disputes of a similar nature are handled.

Reaction among supporters and observers has been mixed, with some questioning the credibility of the result and criticising CAF over alleged bias.

CAS is expected to either confirm the current outcome or overturn it, which would determine the officially recognised winners of AFCON 2025.
