The Iyane Football Club Sports Academy (NSFC-Iyane), a sports structure headed by coach Ibrahima Iyane Thiam, recently signed a partnership agreement with the International University of Casablanca, Morocco.

The aim of this partnership is to offer young Senegalese high school graduates the opportunity to pursue their higher education in Morocco. They will be able to join one of the ten (10) training centers offered, including: sports management, international hotel management, international business relations, law, the Casablanca Private School of Architecture, the School of Engineering, the Private Faculty of Pharmacy, the Business School, among others.

These trainings will be made accessible through a dedicated and inclusive package, designed to bridge the gap between African talent and the future they deserve. This package will cover, among other things, travel expenses, insurance, accommodation, and other services essential for successful integration.

For Ibrahima Iyane Thiam, this initiative represents a concrete alternative to irregular immigration, offering young people, particularly athletes, but also all African talent, real educational and professional prospects. He points out in this regard that two young NSFC-Iyane players, Mamadou Ndour and Alpha Thiam, will soon be joining the International University of Casablanca to continue their studies while continuing their sports activities.

It should be noted that the funds generated within the framework of this project will also contribute to the completion of work on the mausoleum of Mame Massamba Thiam, grandson of the Seal of the Prophets Mouhamed (PSL), located in Taïba Gueyène.
