In recent seasons, there's been a flurry of transfer activity in the winter window, particularly from Premier League clubs. This season, however, spending has been at a minimum.

AFCON catch-up: Senegal and Morocco looking strong, Ivory Coast and Cameroon still alive, and Cape Verde and Mauritania spring surprises Jan 25, 2024

Show notes

With the group stage of the 2024 (but really 2023) Africa Cup of Nations now in the books, we take a look back at the major points of interest so far. Can Morocco find better scoring efficiency in the knockout round? Will Senegal continue to make things look all too easy? How far can surprising sides like Cape Verde, Mauritania and Angola go? What has Nigeria done to turn things around, and why has the Ivory Coast completely failed to do the same? Is sacking your coach in the middle of the tournament maybe not a great idea? All those questions and many more answered as we review everything, and then take a look ahead to the knockout round!
