Source: 2023 Africa Cup of Nations squads

The 2023 Africa Cup of Nations was an international football tournament held in the Ivory Coast from 13 January to 11 February 2024. The 24 participating national teams were required to register a squad with a minimum of 23 and a maximum 27 players, an increase of up to four players over the regular number of 23 allowed in the tournament's regulations. Only players in these squads were eligible to take part in the tournament.
On 15 December 2023, the Confederation of African Football (CAF) announced the increase of the maximum number of players included on the final lists from 23 to 27. However, the inclusion of the four extra players was optional and teams could still only name a maximum of 23 players on the match list for each tournament fixture (of which twelve were substitutes).
Each national team had to submit a provisional list of up to fifty five players to CAF no later than 14 December 2023. The final list of up to 27 players per national team had to be submitted to CAF General Secretariat by 3 January 2024, ten days before the opening match of the tournament. A player on the submitted final list could only be replaced in the event of serious injury at the latest 24 hours before the beginning of his team's first match of the tournament, provided that it was approved by the CAF Medical Committee.
CAF published the provisional lists on 20 December 2023.
The age listed for each player is on 13 January 2024, the first day of the tournament. The numbers of caps and goals listed for each player do not include any matches played after the start of the tournament. The club listed is the club for which the player last played a competitive match before the tournament. The nationality for each club reflects the national association (not the league) to which the club is affiliated. A flag is included for coaches who are of a different nationality than their own national team.
