Elephants to set up camp in Tanzania
Ivory Coast will train in Tanzania before traveling to Angola for next year's Nations Cup finals.
The decision was confirmed on Monday in Dar es Salaam at a joint press conference between the members of the football federations of both countries.
The coach of the Elephants Vahid Hallilhodzic was also present.
The Ivorians will play two friendly matches against the Taifa Stars on January 4 and January 7 before flying out to Luanda.

The Black Stars will begin training for next year's Africa Cup of Nations on December 27.
Ghana will begin residential training for the bi-annual tournament to be hosted by Angola in the South African town of Nelspruit.
Officials have already visited the facilities in Nelspurit and are pleased with what they have seen.
"We have started advanced planning for the Nations Cup and we have already picked December 27 to start camping," GFA spokesman Randy Abbey told ghanasoccernet.
"We want to ensure the squad is prepared adequately for the challenge ahead."
Players from the main European leagues of France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Holland are expected to join camp from the start.
But those players featuring in England like Michael Essien, John Pantsil, John Mensah and Richard Kingson will only join the squad from January 3 as stipulated by FIFA regulations.
