Kenya Police FC have suffered a setback after CAF dismissed their appeal against Al Hilal, who will now proceed to the CAF Champions League group stage.
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) Disciplinary Committee has officially rejected the appeal lodged by Kenya Police FC against Sudan's Al Hilal, definitively confirming the Sudanese Giant's right to proceed in the CAF Champions League group stage.
This pivotal decision, received by the General Secretariat of Al Hilal Club on November 17, 2025, one day before the start of their first group stage match, brings the eligibility dispute to a close.
The complaint was raised following the second leg of the preliminary round, where Al Hilal defeated Kenya Police FC 3-1 at the Benina Martyrs Stadium in Benghazi on October 24, 2025, securing a 4-1 aggregate win after their 1-0 win in the first leg.
