CONTENDERS OR CHAMPIONS: SENEGAL AIMS FOR SECOND AFCON TITLE IN MOROCCO
Undefeated in qualification, Senegal heads to AFCON 2025 as a strong contender. Coach Pape Thiaw balances veteran leadership with exciting young talent for a second title.
Senegal heads to the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco. They have high expectations but also confidence from playing well on the continent's biggest stage.
This is their 18th time at the tournament. After winning in 2021, they have a chance to win a second title in just three tries. That win changed how the nation views its soccer team. Now, the Teranga Lions see AFCON as a place where they are contenders and champions who want to stay on top.
To get to Morocco, they showed they can be in charge and consistent. Senegal went undefeated in a group with Burkina Faso, Burundi, and Malawi. These teams can cause trouble, but they couldn't stop the Lions from controlling things or staying strong.
They also went undefeated in their 2026 World Cup qualifiers, finishing ahead of a strong DR Congo team. This shows that Senegal doesn't just win; they control the game with structure, skill, and flashes of individual talent.
Head coach Pape Thiaw took over after Aliou Cissé, a national icon, had a long run. Thiaw keeps Senegal’s soccer identity of discipline, strength, and smart tactics. He also brings new ideas and gives young players a chance. He mixes practical choices with expressive attacking play, so Senegal stays strong on defence but can also attack in ways that are hard to predict.
This is made possible by amazing squad depth. The celebrated “Golden Generation” is still key to the team. Sadio Mané can change games with his speed and skill. Edouard Mendy brings calm and confidence as a goalie. Kalidou Koulibaly leads the defence with authority. Idrissa Gueye balances the midfield with experience and hard work. These players have proven themselves in AFCON, the World Cup, and top European leagues.
They are joined by rising stars who give Senegal fresh energy and choices. Nicolas Jackson's sharp movement and finishing improve the attack. Ibrahim Mbaye is athletic and can play many positions. Lamine Camara, one of Africa’s most exciting young midfielders, adds creativity. Together, experienced leaders and young talent give the Lions depth, drive, and many styles of play.
As AFCON 2025 gets closer, Senegal is a favourite because of their momentum, balance, and belief in themselves. They can control games and create winning plays. The Teranga Lions will again be watched closely as they try to win the title.
CRISTIANO RONALDO PROTESTS AL-HILAL'S BENZEMA DEAL BY SKIPPING AL-NASSR LEAGUE MATCH
Cristiano Ronaldo is fuming. Discover why the Al-Nassr star skipped his last match and is now threatening to leave Saudi Arabia.
Cristiano Ronaldo has been the main attraction in the Saudi Pro League ever since he landed in the Middle East three years ago. Now, for the first time, it looks like he’s actually thinking about leaving. He’s frustrated. He feels the playing field isn’t level, and it’s starting to get to him.
Here’s the deal: Four clubs in the league—Al-Ittihad, Al-Nassr, Al-Hilal, and Al-Ahli—get their backing straight from the state. But Ronaldo sat out Al-Nassr’s match against Al-Riyadh on Monday night. Why? He was protesting. He found out Al-Hilal was about to sign Karim Benzema from Al-Ittihad, and that was the last straw. From Ronaldo’s perspective, Al-Hilal keeps getting more freedom to splash cash than everyone else. They’re the current champions, and Ronaldo still hasn’t managed to win his first Saudi title.
Saudi officials tried to calm him down. According to Diario AS, they reached out and argued that most of Al-Hilal’s extra spending comes from Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, not the Public Investment Fund (PIF). Al-Hilal just brought in Kader Meite for €30 million, Saimon Bouabre for €23 million, and now Benzema. Al-Nassr, on the other hand, only managed two free transfers this winter. Sure, they spent a lot more in the summer, but that didn’t seem to matter to Ronaldo.
Reports from Portugal, cited by AS, say Ronaldo’s not ruling anything out—not even leaving Saudi Arabia this summer. That’s despite just signing an extension with Al-Nassr until 2027.
And honestly, he has a point. Since he arrived, Al-Hilal have spent €647 million, while Al-Nassr have shelled out €410 million and Al-Ittihad €365 million. These numbers probably don’t include salaries—and let’s face it, nobody’s making more than Ronaldo. He’s supposed to return on Friday when Al-Nassr face Al-Ittihad, but right now, no one really knows if he’ll play or if he’s planning his next move.
N’GOLO KANTE SKIPS TRAINING AS AL-ITTIHAD BLOCK HIS MOVE TO FENERBAHCE OFFICIALLY
N’Golo Kante has gone on strike at Al-Ittihad after a paperwork error blocked his move to Fenerbahce. Can he still sign by Friday?
N’Golo Kanté didn’t show up for Al-Ittihad training on Tuesday, and it’s not hard to see why. He was all set to head to Fenerbahçe, but the deal fell apart at the last minute—apparently because Al-Ittihad messed up some paperwork. Kante was supposed to fly to Istanbul and sign, but thanks to this administrative slip, he’s stuck in limbo. There’s still a shot at reviving the transfer sinceKanté Turkey’s transfer window stays open until Friday, February 6.
Kante was one of the first big European names to jump to the Saudi Pro League, joining Al-Ittihad in 2023 after seven years with Chelsea. He’s been a key player in Jeddah, helping Al-Ittihad win the 2024-25 league title and the King’s Cup.
Then, in the middle of the January window, word got out that Fenerbahce wanted him. The Turkish club were eager to add a World Cup winner to their squad. The plan was to swap Kante for Youssef En-Nesyri, who’d head to Saudi Arabia. Everything seemed set until deadline day, when news broke that an error by Al-Ittihad in the Transfer Matching System stopped the transfer cold.
Fenerbahce didn’t hold back. They blamed Al-Ittihad directly, saying they’d done everything right: agreements with the players, medicals, paperwork, all wrapped up on time. But Al-Ittihad entered something wrong in the system, and that was that. Fenerbahçe even asked for an extension and reached out to FIFA, but nothing moved. In the end, the deal died, and Fenerbahçe put out a statement saying they understood the frustration and would keep working to strengthen the squad.
Meanwhile, Kante’s making his feelings clear. According to Ben Jacobs, he skipped training on Tuesday, still hoping the move to Fenerbahce can happen. Santi Aouna says talks between the clubs aren’t dead yet. L’Equipe is reporting that Kanté doesn’t want to play for Al-Ittihad while he waits for FIFA’s decision. With the Turkish window open until Friday, there’s still a glimmer of hope for Kante, though En-Nesyri’s move is off the table for now.
