The Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) trophy has reportedly been stolen from the Egyptian Football Association headquarters in Cairo.
The Egyptian Football Federation confirmed to Goal that the trophy won by the Pharaohs in 2006, 2008 and 2010 is missing.
Ahmed Shobeir released a statement which confirmed the loss of the trophy, “As the Egyptian Football Association plans to develop its headquarters, including converting the entrance into a small museum for Egyptian football, the federation’s management was surprised that there were a number of lost trophies in the federation’s storeroom.
The Egyptian Football Federation has begun an investigation on the matter. However, the report has been made by an employee who claimed that the trophy was held by former Egypt captain Ahmed Hassan who denied the claim.
Nevertheless, the AFCON tournament is scheduled to hold at Cameroon in June and July 2021.
