Coach Tom Saintfiet and national team manager Ousman Cho Drammeh are set to represent The Gambia at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations draw.

The draw for the continent’s bi-annual biggest football showpiece is set for tomorrow, Thursday 12th October 2023 in Abidjan, Ivory Coast.

 Coach Saintfiet and national team manager Drammeh will both represent The Gambia at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations balloting.

The Gambia secured qualification to the continent’s bi-annual biggest football fiesta after finishing second-place in Group G of the qualifiers with 10 points in six group matches.

The Scorpions will pray to avoid heavy-weights such as Cameroon, Egypt, Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Senegal and Nigeria in the balloting for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.

It could be recalled The Gambia slipped to Cameroon 2-0 in their quarter-final match of the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.
