Qualification was made up of 6 sub-confederation qualifying tournaments which will be starting on the 1st of August 2024. Qualification will finish in September with the participating teams reduced to the final 8, consisting of one winning team each from the 6 CAF sub-confederations, the tournament's defending champions, and the host nation's league-winning team. These 8 teams would proceed to the main tournament phases which had not been chosen yet.
