The 2017 African Cup Of Nations will be hosted by Gabon according to Confederation of African Football, CAF. The 2012 Co-host was chosen ahead of 1990 host, Algeria and four-time African Champions, Gha
na.

Four cities expected to host the tournament and their capacities includes: Libreville (45,000), Franceville (25,000), Port Gentil & Oyem (both 20,000).

It will be recalled that the last time Gabon co-hosted alongside Equitorial Guinea, the Super Eagles were absent in 2012.
