Former EFA vice-president Ahmed Shobier has revealed the Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt has been misplaced by Egypt Football Federation.
The North Africans enjoyed great success in the continental tournament between 2006 and 2010, clinching the trophy three times as a result won the trophy permanently.
The missing of the trophy was discovered as the country was preparing to build a museum where the diadems will be displayed.
It was previously claimed former player Ahmed Hassan was in possession of the highly coveted trophy, which he denied vehemently.
Shobier, who is now a journalist, made the revelation during his programme while the federation have also confirmed the missing trophy as well.
