Everything is set for a highly anticipated visit, with CAF president Patrice Motsepe arriving in Dakar on Wednesday, April 8, 2026, for a full schedule.
According to the itinerary released by the Senegalese Football Federation, several institutional meetings are planned with key figures in Senegalese football.
The highlight of this visit will undoubtedly be his meeting with the President of the Republic, Bassirou Diomaye Faye, underscoring the importance attached to this trip at the highest level of government.
The day is set to conclude with a press conference, during which Motsepe is expected to address the sensitive issues of the moment.
This visit comes at a particularly tense time, marked notably by Senegal’s appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport following the controversial decision regarding the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
The decision in question was to award the tournament trophy to Morocco, even though Senegal had won it on the field.
