Gianni Infantino, president of FIFA, says the newly proposed African Super League will commence on October 20.
Infantino spoke at the general assembly of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) in Abidjan on Thursday.
The competition, initially announced to feature 24 clubs, has been scaled down to eight teams.
The reduction in the number of participating clubs was due to CAF’s $15.7 million loss for the 2022/2023 financial year.
The Super League is expected to run concurrently with CAF’s Champions League, Confederation Cup and domestic leagues.
