Despite the dramatic twists and turns surrounding their victory in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations final, the Senegalese players have received some good news.
Before flying out for their recent matches against Peru and The Gambia, the Lions of Teranga saw funds deposited into their accounts by the government, according to Senegalese sports press.
Each player thus received a victory bonus of 75 million CFA francs, fulfilling the commitment made by the Head of State following their performances on the continental stage.
This massive payment, made just a few days before the latest international fixtures, was intended to galvanize the team and boost morale despite CAF’s decision to award the trophy to Morocco.
By honoring this debt of gratitude, the Senegalese authorities reaffirm their unwavering support for the national team, while instilling a positive momentum for the challenges ahead in the quest for new trophies.
