Aliou Cissé, a coach of Senegal for seven years, could be forced to leave his post as the head coach of Terranga Lions. He is reportedly considering a move since returning from Qatar where his side was knocked out in the round of 16 of the World Cup by England.
While he has renewed his contract with the Senegalese FA for two more years, until 2024 on the eve of the World Cup, thus rewarding his wonderful footballing year with the first AFCON trophy in the history of Senegal and a second consecutive qualification for world football, Aliou Cissé would already have a decision in mind after being eliminated in the round of 16 in Qatar.
Aliou Cissé reflects on his future by thinking of parting ways with the Senegal National team after seven years.
But according to the Senegal newspaper Daily Record, which makes its front page of the day, Aliou Cissé would have doubts about continuing the adventure with the Lions of Teranga.
He is already thinking of leaving despite the full support from the people of Senegal. It remains to be seen if he will be able to say goodbye before it is too late.
Cisse was captain in 2002 when Senegal made the World Cup quarter-finals. Manager since 2015, he has qualified for successive World Cup finals and led them to a first Africa Cup of Nations in February.
