One prediction market prices this story:

  • Morocco — the market puts it at 29%, with $95 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 3 Aug 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Morocco wins the 2027 Men's Africa Cup of Nations. It resolves to No if any other team wins that tournament. Readers often mistake the linked news story about appointing a prime minister as relevant, but only the football championship result matters.
