Morocco is ready to boycott the 2023 U-17 Africa Cup of Nations which will take place in Algeria if the team is not allowed to fly directly to the host country.

Algeria will host the competition from April 29 to May 19.

Earlier this year, Algeria deprived Morocco’s team of participating in CHAN by refusing to allow the Atlas Lions to fly directly from Rabat to Constantine.
