Before the start to the 2022 World Cup, the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF) and the state have backed Senegalese gaffer, Aliou Cissé.

This Thursday, the FA announced an extension of the technician’s contract until 2024.

According to online news outlet  Records,  due to Cisse’s extension, his salary has been doubled and will go from 15 to 30 million CFA francs per month, just about 45,414 euros.

A salary the FSF and the State of Senegal  have agreed to each share  payments by half 50/50.
