Senegal, team, myself don’t agree with Mane on retirement – Coach Thiaw

Senegal head coach Pape Thiaw says he and the entire Teranga Lions squad do not support Sadio Mane’s suggestion that Sunday’s AFCON 2025 final against Morocco could be his last appearance at the tournament. Thiaw insisted that Mane made the comment “in the heat of the moment” and stressed that “Senegal needs him” for the years and competitions ahead.​ The coach praised Mane’s influence in the semi final win over Egypt and described him as a rare player whose experience and leadership remain vital as Senegal chase more titles and aim to qualify for future World Cups.

AFCON final: Senegal accuse Morocco of sabotage ahead of clash for gold

Senegal’s Football Federation (FSF) has accused hosts Morocco of “systematic sabotage” in the build‑up to Sunday’s Africa Cup of Nations final in Rabat, claiming a series of logistical failures have undermined the Teranga Lions’ preparations. In a strongly worded statement, the FSF alleged problems with security, hotel arrangements, training facilities and ticket allocation for Senegalese fans.​ The federation said the team arrived in Rabat by train from Tangier to find “a clear lack of adequate security measures”, leaving players and staff exposed to overcrowding and safety risks at the station. It also protested that the initial hotel provided was substandard and only after an official complaint were the team moved to a five‑star facility deemed suitable for a continental final.​ Senegal further rejected plans to train at the Mohammed VI Complex, Morocco’s base throughout the tournament, arguing that using the […]

Burkina Faso sack coach Traore after AFCON 2025 exit

Burkina Faso have sacked head coach Brama Traore and his entire backroom staff following the team’s exit from the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. The Burkina Faso Football Federation announced the decision on Wednesday, citing the need for a new direction after a disappointing last 16 elimination.​ Traore, 63, took charge of the Stallions in March 2024, replacing Frenchman Hubert Velud, who was also dismissed after a last 16 exit at the previous AFCON.
