Senegal government challenges Football Federation on Baba Tiaw contract
The Ministry of Government in Senegal is facing a legal and financial crisis regarding the contract of the national team coach, Pape Thiaw, who signed a three-year agreement during the 2026 World Cup, with a monthly salary of 46,000 euros and a signing bonus of 183,000 euros. However, the contract did not receive the required official approval, which makes the government not obligated to pay the dues, indicating that the procedures were not completed in accordance with legal standards. If the federation insists on retaining Thiaw, it will have to bear these costs personally, potentially placing an additional burden on its budget, especially after the criticism the federation faced following their World Cup participation, amid prior tensions between the coach and the federation regarding the contract terms, and the revelation that it was signed under unorganized conditions before the matches began.
