CAF kicks Kenya out of Afcon qualifiers

The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has kicked Kenya out of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers that begin in early June.

Kenya was set to kick off her qualifying campaign away to Cameroon on June 4 but CAF's decision means the group will have now three teams.

"Kenya has been expelled from the qualifiers because the suspension slapped on the country by Fifa three months ago still remains in place. They have not met any of the conditions from Fifa and CAF," a source within the African governing body's circles told Nation Sport on Thursday.
