Placed in a tough group with Morocco, Mali and Zambia, the Comorian Tom Thumb will be able to rely on its two star attackers: Rafiki Saïd, scorer in the decisive match against Gambia during the qualifiers, and Myziane Maolida, the 26-year-old center forward who played for Lyon, Nice and Reims.

With twelve players playing in the French lower divisions, between Ligue 2, National and National 2, the Comoros will still have a strong French accent this winter at the CAN.
Overall quite young, the group will still be supervised by veterans Youssouf M’Changama (35 years old), hero of the 2021 epic and El Fardou Ben Mohamed (36 years old), top scorer in the history of the selection with 19 goals in 40 matches.
