«L'année spéciale de la deuxième étoile…» : Le Pr. Diomaye rouvre l’épisode de la can Maroc-2025 au Kenya
President Bassirou Diomaye Faye is currently in Kenya attending the Africa Forward Summit. This Monday, he participated in discussions on sport and development. And at the beginning of his speech, he allowed himself a brief, playful digression.
"2026 was a special year for Senegal. We did, after all, start it with an African championship title," he said, a mischievous smile on his lips. His words clearly pleased the audience, as he was greeted with enthusiastic applause.
He continued: "This is a special year for us because it's the year of Senegal's second star in football." President Diomaye was preceded at the microphone by Patrice Motsepe, President of the Confederation of African Football (CAF).
With the next Africa Cup of Nations scheduled to take place in Kenya, co-hosted with Tanzania and Uganda, the head of state is making his intentions clear: "So we will come back here next year to defend our title, which will remain intact."
As a reminder, at the conclusion of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, held in Morocco, the CAF Appeals Committee stripped Senegal of its title. The Senegalese Football Federation then filed an appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), which has yet to rule on the case.
