AFCON 2025: Full List of Head Coaches for All 24 National Teams

Posted : 19 December 2025

The Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2025 in Morocco will feature 24 national teams, each led by a designated head coach. The tournament showcases a blend of African talent and global coaching experience across the continent’s top football nations.

Several African coaches are at the helm, with 13 of the 24 managers hailing from the continent, reflecting growing confidence in local expertise. Among them are Walid Regragui for hosts Morocco, Hossam Hassan guiding Egypt, and Kwesi Appiah in charge of Sudan. These appointments underline the strength and experience of African coaches in the international arena.

European influence is still prominent, with coaches from France, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Romania, and Bosnia-Herzegovina managing a significant number of teams. This includes Patrice Beaumelle (Angola), Sébastien Desabre (DR Congo), and Marian “Mario” Marinica (Zimbabwe), bringing tactical experience and global perspectives to their squads.

Notable returning names include Morocco’s Walid Regragui and Ivory Coast’s Emerse Faé, both continuing their leadership after recent achievements. Egypt’s Hossam Hassan and Sudan’s Kwesi Appiah bring historic significance and leadership experience to their respective teams.

Nigeria’s appointment of Éric Sékou Chelle, an Ivorian, is a rare cross-West African move that reflects the league’s openness to regional talent. His leadership adds a new dynamic to the Super Eagles as they prepare for the tournament.

Other notable coaches include Vladimir Petkovic (Algeria), Gernot Rohr (Benin), Hugo Broos (South Africa), and Paul Put (Uganda). Their presence emphasizes the global mix of coaching philosophies shaping African football today.
