Freetown, SIERRA LEONE – FC Kallon’s opponent, FC Douanes of Niger, has withdrawn from the Total Energies CAF Confederation Cup competition. FC Kallon was set to face FC Douanes in both legs of the competition at the Southern Arena in Bo City, Sierra Leone, on Sunday, August 27, and September 1, 2023.

The letter confirmed FC Kallon’s automatic qualification to the second round of the 2023-24 CAF Confederation Cup competition.
