Drafting response for CAF Champions League
I need to respond to the user's request about an overview of the CAF Champions League teams in Chinese. It’s important to clarify which season they’re interested in, but I could provide a general overview of the format, qualification, and recent teams. Since my knowledge cutoff is in October 2024, I’ll focus on structure and important details like number of teams and qualification rules. I should also include a question asking which season they’d like the complete list for.Summarizing CAF Champions League structure
I’m thinking of including examples from the 2023-24 season, like Al Ahly, Wydad, and Mamelodi Sundowns. Al Ahly won the final against Esperance, but I might skip listing every team. The user wants an overview, so I’ll cover allocation rules, competition size, stages, and noteworthy clubs. I’ll also mention the introduction of the African Football League in 2023, but note that the Champions League format has specific changes, like the 16 teams grouped in a 4x4 system.Clarifying CAF Champions League structure
I’m sorting through details about the CAF Champions League format. So, for the 2023-24 season, the group stage remains 16 teams, not the rumored 4 groups of 5. The CAF introduced the African Football League, which is different from the Champions League. Regarding prize money, it seems the winner's amount has been steady at $4 million since 2017, but I’ll avoid exact figures to stay safe. Instead, I’ll just summarize the main structures around group stages and knockout rounds without specifying numbers.Listing notable clubs by region
I want to compile a list of prominent clubs by region for the user.
In North Africa, I’ll include Al Ahly, Zamalek, Wydad, and several others from countries like Morocco and Tunisia. For West Africa, teams like ASEC Mimosas and Enyimba are notable, but Ghana’s coefficient affects their slots. In Central/East Africa, I’ll add TP Mazembe and Simba SC. Southern teams will feature clubs like Mamelodi Sundowns. Lastly, I can mention some others like Nouadhibou, while keeping it concise and informative!Structuring the CAF Champions League overview
I need to clarify some points about the qualification for the CAF Champions League. The top 12 associations receive two slots, while others get one, and the title holder qualifies through their domestic league, not automatically. I’ll propose providing a season list if the user specifies which one. It’s helpful to present structured bullets in my final answer for clarity. I'll cover tournament scale, qualification details, traditional strong teams, regional distributions, and recent trends concisely. Lastly, I can suggest ways to find specific season club lists.
