The Africa Cup of Nations kicks off earlier than usual this year – with up to 17 Premier League clubs set to be affected by players jetting off to host country Morocco.
The tournament runs from 21 December until 18 January.
There has been no official announcement about which date clubs will have to release their players by – and it could vary depending on agreements.
Players could miss up to six, or in some cases seven, Premier League matches – plus FA Cup and Carabao Cup games – if they reach the final.
The group stages end on 31 December, so quickly eliminated players may only miss half that amount.
Arsenal, Chelsea and Leeds do not have any players due to play in the 2025 Afcon – with Sunderland and Wolves losing the most players.
BBC Sport looks at which teams are due to lose players.
