Patrice Motsepe, the President of the Confederation of African Football (CAF), had pledged financial incentives for both the participating clubs and CAF’s 54 member associations. It was reported that each club involved in the CAF Super League was set to receive $1 million, while the winner of the tournament was expected to receive a prize of $11.6 million.
However, since there has been a reduction in the number of teams participating in the tournament, it remains uncertain if these financial commitments will be upheld. It is essential to wait for official announcements or updates from CAF to confirm whether Patrice Motsepe will fulfill his promises regarding the financial incentives for the clubs involved.
