The senseless lawyer hasn't acknowledged that there were more casualties in his super advanced Italy than they were in the whole of the African continent as regards covid-19.

I keep asking myself.. Why can't CAF align their calendar with the rest of the world ?
They are just confusing the players though.

They don't develop the football in the continent and over 70 % of players that grace the Nations cup are from Euro which their season are in session already.

if the football in the country is well developed, players can equally ply their trades in Africa countries without going to Europe and good investors can also come in.

More of these countries can't even pay/treat these players if they have any serious injury during the tournament.

CAF is a reflection of Africa leaders (Politicians), they never develop their continent.

Bros you just dey go off point with your conversation. You can't expect CAF to postpone AFCON or suspend it.. This is the best time of the year to play the competition, or play the competition 5 months to world cup...
If Napoli isn't cool with it, they should sue covid-19 for creating issues like this...

If Cameroon has a large percentage of unvaccinated people, the Vaccination you have injected in Victor should protect him Na! Abi una Jab Na Joke.

A Jab so wonderful that the unvaccinated are blamed for the sickness and Deaths of the Vaccinated.

Sin ,Evil and Wickedness has ruptured the reasoning ability of humans.
Confused Nations and People Everywhere!
U are very sentimental and you find it very difficult to adjust to new knowledge.
The vaccine doesn't stop u getting infections, it only boost ur immunity to fight the infection. That is, u wouldn't fall sick as u should if u weren't vaccinated

They should sue him.. this AFCON people no get sense, this clubs pay the Bills of these players, even when they are injured it is the club doctors who take care of them. Why can't Afcon be played during offseason.
For those who think it's because of covid, you need to have a rethink, this is long overdue. Covid is just an excuse. Afcon is the major reason why Ferguson did not buy Aftican Players.
For your mind you dey make a lot of sense abi?

So with all the sense you dey carry up and down..

You never know the reason..

Why Africa plays her Tournament on Januarys?

Sorry is your name.. angry

Is the same Omicron not ravaging countries with 99% vaccination

You people are clowns!

Oga, use your head.
The boy lost weeks last season due to Covid infection on a visit to Nigeria.
The Club lost hundreds of thousands in paid wages.
When players go down out of active service that amounts to a huge loss for their clubs which are run commercially.
They have real concerns.
FIFA/UEFA and the Italian FA will not allow infected players on the field.
Unlike here they take issues of health seriously because they can be liable if the rules are broken and the situation goes south.

Rainy season, African pitches ain't good with rain

Not only pitches, logistics and poor infrastructure.
Satellite transmission is also very difficult in tropical weather.
For most northern hemisphere and southern hemisphere countries summer (May - September at its broadest) offers the most stable and predictable weather conditions so big budget sporting events take place during this period but for most of Africa, Mid East and Central/Southern Asia the best weather occurs November to March (at its broadest).

The best the clubs can do is to have their players vaccinated..

After all these same players just finished the Euros and COPA in July..

The Tournament has been delayed for a year already..

WHAT do they want?

Another postponement?

I am talking about Afcon but specifically about Osimen and Napoli.
Even yoiu must admit that Osimen has hardly played for this team since he signed.
I don't think he has played a dozen consecutive matches for Naopli without issues.
That is neither good for him nor his club.
And as a businessman if you have such a highly prized, highly paid staff on you books you will be frustrated by what is happening.
I can unjderstand their position and concerns about Osimen - Africa and Covid.
What if.... just what if the boy comes here, plays and is injured or contracts the virus yet again...

Bro, these clubs are all aware of the AFCON tournament even before signing African players.

It was pointed out that there are plans to play it in-season because of the weather in Qatar.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_FIFA_World_Cup

This is the first time I'm aware the world cup will be played in season and that's due to its being played in Qatar.

I think Afcon can be held off-season if the organisers agree to host the tournament in S.A

Recuperating Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen, may miss the fast-approaching Africa Cup of Nations if a report from Italy is anything to go by.

Napoli lawyer, Mattia Grassani, according to report, warns clubs could sue to stop their players participating in the Africa Cup of Nations.

“Considering the epidemiological situation, there could be legal action, because this tournament takes away valuable resources from the clubs,” Napoli lawyer Grassani told CalcioNapoli24.

“It is a particular historic moment, so it would be different if we felt 99 percent confident of the situation. The clubs invested a lot of money signing players like Victor Osimhen, so if he were to become infected, that’d be tough to deal with.

“The first step would be legal action to prevent the call-up, then if there were concrete elements to sue because the health standards are not the same as in European competitions, then there could be more appeals to gain an exemption for Europe-based players.”

Cameroon has only five per cent of the population vaccinated, there are fears this could turn into a super-spreader event for the continent and the entire football world.

Clubs are increasingly concerned at the idea of letting their players participate in the competition, citing health worries.

What makes Osimehn any different?

From any other player..

That have ever graced international football?

They know what they were getting into..

When they decided to sign him on.

If Osimehn is fit..

Why should he be treated any different..

From any other player?

Getting injured is part of the game..

Even in his bedroom..

He can be injured..

The best they can do is have him vaccinated..

And wish him well..

Why should they agree to host it off season?

So the next one that comes around..

We should also continue to have SA host it..

At the slightest sentiment from Europe?

It's just about following the norms in most part of the world. Almost everywhere, major tournaments are held off-season.

I can agree with you on the basis of weather though.
I never said they should postpone or suspend it.
And yes, no club is bigger than the continent.

The issue on ground wasn't caused by this ....

Africa developed Europe at the same rate that Europe underdeveloped Africa.

This is Neocolonialism at its peak.

I have finished that book twice.
