SFS weighs disciplinary action against Pape Gueye for explosive comment
The Senegalese Football Federation is considering taking disciplinary action against midfielder Pape Gueye after he announced a strike from international duty until the current coaching staff is replaced following their World Cup exit.
The Senegalese Football Federation is actively reviewing potential disciplinary measures against midfielder Pape Gueye following his explosive public statements.
According to reports from the Associated Press, federation officials are deeply furious after the Villarreal player openly announced an immediate hiatus from the national team, declaring he will refuse all call-ups as long as the current technical management remains in charge.
The internal fallout erupted shortly after Senegal suffered a crushing 3-2 extra-time elimination against Belgium in the World Cup Round of 16.
Gueye, who subbed out in the 66th minute, took to social media to direct his frustrations at head coach Pape Bouna Thiaw’s staff. The federation views the public ultimatum as a severe breach of protocol, threatening squad harmony.
