Edo Queens FC has been shortlisted for the prestigious 2024 CAF Women’s Club of the Year award alongside African champions TP Mazembe and AS FAR of Morocco. This announcement was made by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) on Thursday, ahead of the ceremony scheduled to take place in Marrakech, Morocco, on Monday, December 16.
The Benin City-based team, coached by Moses Aduku, had an impressive year, clinching the WAFU B Women’s Champions League title earlier and securing a fourth-place finish at the CAF Women’s Champions League last month. Edo Queens now stand on the brink of history as they aim to become the first Nigerian club to claim this coveted accolade.
The competition is fierce, with AS FAR being the reigning champions of Morocco and TP Mazembe boasting an exceptional record on the continental stage. Nevertheless, Edo Queens’ remarkable achievements in 2024 have earned them a place among Africa’s finest women’s football clubs.
The CAF Awards ceremony is set to celebrate the best of African football, with anticipation building for who will claim top honors in the Women’s Club of the Year category.
