Present in Paris this Sunday March 22, 2026 for a FIFA event, the 45-year-old former international shared his disbelief at the microphone of RMC Sport, describing the situation as grotesque while displaying combative serenity.
“Shocked like everyone else”
“Shocked like everyone but I believe that things will soon return to order, we trust the Court of Arbitration for Sport and we are confident. We know that we won on the pitch and that’s what’s most important. And I wanted to thank all the countries and all the people who supported us. I believe that without a doubt everyone is aware and knows that Senegal is legally African champion,” thundered the former Liverpool player.
Senegal does not give up
As a reminder, the Senegalese national mobilization is not weakening. Diouf also wanted to thank the international support received by Senegal, reinforcing the idea of a country which feels invested with a mission of justice. It should also be noted that Diouf’s compatriots have already planned to celebrate their coronation at the Stade de France during their friendly match against Peru on Saturday March 28. The fight continues.
