Territories include Angola, Ghana, Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria, Tanzania, Togo, Ivory Coast and Uganda. The official guide and colouring-in book will be available from the end of May 2006.
Douw Steyn, CEO of Media24 Africa, says: "Media24 Africa is fast becoming the leading publisher of printed material in Africa and the licensing agreement with FIFA presents opportunities in established and new territories.
"We are confidant that the official guide and colouring-in book will be a sought-after item given the huge enthusiasm for football across Africa."
