El portero senegalés Edouard Mendy ha lanzado un duro ataque contra la Confederación Africana de Fútbol (CAF) tras su controvertida decisión de despojar a los Leones de Teranga del título de la Copa Africana de Naciones 2025 y otorgárselo a Marruecos. El veterano guardameta considera que las deficiencias administrativas están socavando activamente los enormes avances logrados por los mejores jugadores del continente.
Las estrellas de la selección de Senegal han lanzado un mensaje desafiante al desfilar con el trofeo de la Copa Africana de Naciones ante un estadio lleno hasta los topes en el Stade de France. A pesar de la reciente decisión que les ha despojado oficialmente de su título continental, los Leones de Teranga siguen considerándose claramente los legítimos campeones de África.
La Federación Senegalesa de Fútbol (FSF) ha presentado oficialmente un recurso ante el Tribunal de Arbitraje Deportivo (TAS) contra la Confederación Africana de Fútbol (CAF) y la Real Federación Marroquí de Fútbol (FRMF). Esta medida sin precedentes tiene por objeto revocar una controvertida decisión que despojó a Senegal de su título de la Copa Africana de Naciones y otorgó el campeonato a Marruecos.
