U-23 Africa Cup of Nations

The U-23 Africa Cup of Nations, known for sponsorship purposes as the TotalEnergies U-23 Africa Cup of Nations, or simply U-23 AFCON or U-23 CAN, is the quadrennial African football tournament organized by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) for its nations, consisting of players under 23 years of age, and was first held in 2011. It has been held every four years since its inauguration. Until 2028, the top three countries/nations qualified directly from every edition of this tournament for the football tournament of the Olympic Games; FIFA and the IOC approved a 12‑team men's tournament for 2028 and reduced the number of CAF entries to two.

Egypt, Gabon, Morocco and Nigeria are the most successful teams in this tournament with each winning a single title. Morocco and Egypt are the only country to have played the final twice. Morocco are the tournament's current champions, having beaten Egypt 2-1 in the 2023 final.
