Fake document attributing the CAN to Senegal
Meanwhile, according to Football.fr, a false announcement attributing the CAN 2025 title to the Senegalese selection was circulated on social media with a document dated October 14, 2026. This fake letter presented Matthieu Reeb as secretary general of the Court of Arbitration for Sport, when in fact he holds the position of director general of the sovereign body.
Deliberations still ongoing in Lausanne
According to Football.fr, the arbitral panel composed of Gerald Simon, Luigi Fumagalli, and Ulrich Haas is still studying the case. The matter dates back to the final match played on January 18 in Rabat, during which Senegal players left the playing area for sixteen minutes. Although Senegal won 1-0 on the field, the CAF declared a forfeit on March 17, awarding Morocco a 3-0 victory. No definitive ruling has yet been issued by the judges.
