Contagieux avec la Fédération libyenne de football : Bonne nouvelle pour Aliou Cissé
Aliou Cissé has won his battle with the Libyan Football Federation (FLF). After several months of unpaid wages, the former Senegal coach obtained a favorable ruling from FIFA, which ordered the Libyan body to pay him substantial financial compensation.
According to the decision rendered by the world football governing body, the Senegalese coach will receive compensation of 820,000 euros, or approximately 538 million CFA francs, in compensation for the damage suffered as a result of the failure to comply with his contractual obligations.
Appointed as Libya's national team coach in March 2025, Aliou Cissé signed a two-year contract with an option for a third year. His contract stipulated a monthly salary of $80,000, equivalent to nearly 50 million CFA francs.
However, the former coach of the Lions of Senegal was never paid during the last eight months of his tenure in charge of the Libyan national team. The Libyan Football Federation (FLF) justified this situation by citing serious financial difficulties, with its president mentioning a lack of resources to honor the commitments made to the coach.
Over the months, salary arrears accumulated to reach approximately 361 million CFA francs.
Faced with this untenable situation, Aliou Cissé (50 years old) had decided to end his adventure in April 2026.
A few months later, the Senegalese coach returned to the sidelines, taking charge of the Angolan national team, the Palancas Negras, thus opening a new chapter in his career.
This FIFA decision reinforces the rights of the Senegalese coach and reminds national federations of their obligation to respect their contractual commitments to their coaches and employees.
