Equatorial Guinea head coach, Sebastien Migné said 2021 AFCON should be played in winter. At the beginning of the year, so from January to February as scheduled by CAF.

“It’s better if the tournament takes place in January starting next year and when flights resume normally we will be able to continue the qualifiers” he said.

Guinea coach Didier Six also said 2021 AFCON should be kept as initially planned.
