The Executive Committee (Comex) of the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF) held a particularly intense meeting this Saturday, focusing on several priority issues for the future of Senegalese football. This session, which lasted for hours, allowed the federation leaders to examine many questions related to the management of various national teams and the functioning of the organization. One of the most anticipated topics was the bonuses for the U17 Africa Cup of Nations champions, a matter that continues to fuel discussions months after the historic victory of the Lionceaux.
Victorious in the U17 Africa Cup of Nations, the young Senegalese internationals received congratulations from the entire nation for their remarkable journey. Their performance confirmed the quality of work done in the youth categories and strengthened Senegal’s reputation on the continental stage. However, despite this sporting success, the players are still waiting for the bonuses that were promised to them following their title. This prolonged wait raises many questions in public opinion and among stakeholders in national football.
During the Comex meeting, this issue was addressed with particular attention. According to information reported by the specialized media Dsports, federation officials are actively seeking a solution to speed up the administrative and financial process necessary for the payment of the bonuses. The discussions mainly focused on the mechanisms to unlock the funds as quickly as possible, aiming to provide a concrete response to the expectations of the young Africa champions.
The members of the Executive Committee also discussed the various procedures to finalize the disbursement of the allocated amounts. The stated ambition is to remove the last administrative obstacles so that the players can finally receive the financial reward promised after their continental success. This desire to quickly find a favorable outcome shows the importance that federation leaders place on this issue, which has become one of the most sensitive in recent months.

According to Dsports, the issue of bonuses for the U17 Africa champions is now among the FSF’s immediate priorities. The leaders want to reach a quick resolution to end this wait that has lasted for several months. While no official date has yet been communicated for the actual payment of the bonuses, the discussions held during this meeting reflect a desire to accelerate the processes and finally allow the young Lionceaux to receive the rewards linked to their continental achievement.
