The tournament runs from 21 December until 18 January.
We've only got Marmoush and Aït Nouri (bit of a piss take as he's been injured for us - but O'Reilly is far better anyway).
Liverpool will lose Salah and Rags Bryan Mbeumo, which will be great. Arsenal interestingly don't have one player that will go..

Another utter dogshit tournament. Devoid of any real quality

This season's surprise package, fourth-placed Sunderland will be the worst affected team by far by Afcon 2025 with seven players due to leave.
They are Morocco winger Chemsdine Talbi, Senegal midfielder Habib Diarra, Mozambique full-back Reinildo, Ivory Coast winger Simon Adingra, Burkina Faso forward Bertrand Traore and DR Congo pair Arthur Masuaku and Noah Sadiki.
The majority of them are first-team regulars, with 50 Premier League appearances between them this season.Lovely stuff
Wouldn't surprise me if they are praying for snow and try and postpone the game
