Coupe du monde 2026 : le retour des Lions du Sénégal tourne au casse-tête
Senegal's elimination from the World Cup continues to cause a stir. While the Lions of Teranga were supposed to return to Dakar on a special chartered flight, the trip was ultimately cancelled at the last minute, leaving part of the delegation stranded in the United States.
According to reports from the Senegalese media outlet DSports, this situation stems from a dispute between the Ministry of Sports and the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF). The two parties are reportedly passing the buck regarding responsibility for organizing the repatriation, causing a significant delay in the national team's return.
While awaiting a solution, several players and staff members remain in the United States. However, some international players had already left the delegation to return home on their own or due to personal commitments. This is notably the case for Pape Alassane Gueye, Édouard Mendy, Mory Diaw, and Ismaïla Jakobs.
This new episode further accentuates the climate of confusion surrounding the end of the Lions of Teranga's journey at the 2026 World Cup. After a disappointing elimination, this controversy over the conditions of the delegation's return raises many questions about the coordination between the different bodies in charge of managing the national team.
