CAF sets January 11 deadline for squad lists
The Confederation of African Football has set
January 11, 2012 as the deadline for the
submission of squad lists for the African Nations
Cup.

According to Caf, all qualified teams have before
the midnight of the deadline date to forward their
23-man squads, thus ten days ahead of the start of
the competition in Gabon and Equatorial Guinea on
January 21.

Caf have announced that in conformity with its
regulations, a qualified team that fails to meet
the deadline will attract a fine of $3,000.

The sport governing body also cautioned that if
seven days before kick off, a side does not submit
its complete list of players, that association
will be allowed to register only 20 players for
the tournament.

On the replacement of injured players, Caf
confirmed that in the event of a serious injury, a
listed player may be replaced 24 hours before kick
off of his team's first match. And this provision
is subject to approval by the CAF Medical
Committee after receiving a detailed medical
assessment.
