The draw for the continent’s bi-annual biggest football fiesta will be held in Abidjan, Ivory Coast on 12 October 2023.
Coach Tom Saintfiet and his Scorpions charges will be hoping to avoid heavy-weights such as Cameroon, Nigeria, Senegal, Egypt, Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia and Ivory Coast in the balloting for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
The Gambia snatched qualification to the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations after finishing second-place in Group G of the continent’s biennial qualifiers with 10 points in six group matches.
The Scorpions will use the upcoming months to prepare themselves ready for the continent’s bi-annual biggest football showpiece.
It could be recalled that The Gambia were eliminated in the quarter-finals of the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations after losing to Cameroon 2-0.
