The tournament was originally due to be staged in Guinea but they were stripped of the honour following inadequate preparations.

Ivory Coast entered the competition as reigning champions after Sebastien Haller netted a dramatic winner in a 2-1 victory over Nigeria in the final of the 2023 edition, held in 2024.
