Alhaji Issah Hayatou, President of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) will lead the next inspection team to Ghana slated for next month as the nation gets ready to host next year's Africa Cup of Nations.
The ninth inspection, which will precede the main draw, is scheduled for October 16-18.

Mr Hayatou is expected to get a first hand feel of the preparations for the January 20 - February 10 soccer championship.
This will be the first time the CAF Boss will be leading the Inspection Team since Ghana won the bid some three years ago.
