The Africa Cup of Nations trophy made a notable appearance in the Paris suburb of Boulogne-Billancourt as part of its international tour ahead of the tournament in Morocco. The visit included a feature on RMC Sport's L'After program, which reaches nearly 14 million annual listeners, and a recording of the After Afrique podcast dedicated to African football.
Martin Bertran from TotalEnergies noted that France provided an ideal location to share enthusiasm for African football with colleagues and partners, given the company's century-long presence in the country. The Paris region hosts one of the largest African diaspora populations globally.
The trophy has already visited Angola, Nigeria and South Africa before arriving in France. Its journey continues to CAF headquarters in Cairo before traveling to Côte d'Ivoire, the defending champions and hosts of the most recent edition.
