On Wednesday, the continental football body confirmed that no continental competitions would be rescheduled owing to the Covid-19 pandemic. “Caf wishes to inform Member Associations and the entire African football family that we are closely monitoring the evolution of the Coronavirus (Covid-19) around the world, in particular, the African continent. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), no African country to date has been declared high risk,” the Caf statement reads.
