AFCON

The Zimbabwean FA have released a statement clarifying why Marshall Munetsi was dropped from their AFCON squad.

Marshall Munetsi insists his injury is not that serious and that he would have been fit to feature in AFCON after his exclusion.

Tolu Arokodare has not been called up for the Nigerian AFCON squad ahead of the tournament, in a boost for Wolves.

Wolves coped fairly well during the last two African Cup of Nations tournaments, but this season presents a different challenge.

Wolves’ AFCON stars can miss up to eight games during the tournament, depending on how well they do with their nation.

Jackson Tchatchoua, Marshall Munetsi, Tolu Arokodare, Tawanda Chirewa and Emmanuel Agbadou could all be at AFCON this winter.

Mark Williams, Adlene Guedioura, and Willy Boly are the three former Wolves players who have won AFCON and worn the Old Gold.
