All Bundesliga players at the Africa Cup of Nations

The upcoming Africa Cup of Nations means many Bundesliga clubs will have to cope without key players for a period of time.

With the 35th edition of the Africa Cup of Nations set to take place from 21 December 2025 to 18 January 2026, a total of 17 Bundesliga players from 10 clubs have been called up to represent their national teams.

Exactly how long each player will be unavailable to their club depends on how far their team progresses in the tournament.

If a player reaches the final with his national team, he would miss up to four Bundesliga matches for his club.
