Un joueur de la Premier League surprend tout le monde : « La CAN 2025 sera remportée par le Zimbabwe »
This is certainly the riskiest bet of this AFCON. While Senegal, Morocco, Egypt, and Algeria are considered the favorites, Mateus Fernandes prefers to put his money on the Warriors of Zimbabwe.
When asked by his club West Ham's community manager which country would win the Africa Cup of Nations, the Portuguese player didn't hesitate. "Zimbabwe will win the AFCON," declared the 21-year-old midfielder, who was signed this summer for the modest sum of 42 million euros.
In their first match, Zimbabwe were far from being outclassed. Against Egypt on Monday evening, Mario Marinica's players led 1-0 at halftime, then came very close to securing a draw, before being pegged back in the very last minute by a goal from Mohamed Salah.
It's worth noting that during the poll of West Ham players, Senegal received the most responses. Jarrod Bowen, the Hammers' captain, voted for the Lions of Teranga to win the tournament, as did Tomas Soucek, in support of their teammate El Hadji Malick Diouf.
