Mondial 2026 : La ministre Djiréye Clotilde Coly annonce la couleur et fixe l’objectif des Lions !
On the sidelines of the Senegal Rek Forum, organized on Sunday at Rutgers University (New Jersey), the Minister of Youth and Sports, Djiréye Clotilde Coly, reassured everyone about the preparation and mindset of the Senegalese delegation a few hours before the Lions' entry into the 2026 World Cup.

When questioned about the national team's situation, the minister indicated that the overall signs were positive, following several discussions with Federation officials and the coaching staff. "The delegation is doing well. I've spoken with officials, both at the Federation and national team levels, and the feedback I've received is very positive," she stated. She added, however, that she wanted to see the situation firsthand: "I'm going to spend some time with them today to see for myself."
Beyond the organizational aspects, the minister also outlined strong sporting ambitions for the national team. According to her, Senegal's objective is clear: to reach the highest possible level in the competition. "Senegal's objective, I think, is simply to reach the final. To go as far as possible, and for us, the farthest point is the final," she stated with conviction. The minister also emphasized her commitment to ensuring the best possible conditions for the Senegalese delegation during the competition, in a context where the country has high expectations for its Lions.
This outing comes as Senegal continues its final preparation, with particular attention paid to coaching, logistics and team cohesion before its entry onto the world stage against France, this Tuesday, June 16, 2026 at MetLife Stadium.
