An article circulating online claims the Senegalese national football team is prepared to return medals to Morocco following a disciplinary ruling by the Confederation of African Football (CAF). A web search conducted on March 24, 2026, found no credible news sources or official statements from CAF, the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF), or the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) to verify this claim.

The alleged incident, described as happening during a final in Rabat, could not be corroborated. Recent CAF disciplinary announcements and match reports do not mention such an event or sanction involving Senegal's senior national team, known as the Lions of Teranga, that would necessitate the return of medals or a trophy.

Captain Idrissa Gueye has made no public statement on this matter. The original article appears to be based on unverified information. Official channels should be consulted for accurate updates on African football governance and disciplinary actions.
