“The aim is to win the World Cup,” says Pape Gueye

The Senegalese international midfielder has delivered an ambitious message regarding the Lions of Teranga’s goals for this summer’s World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico.

Senegal’s ambition is immense, and the team can count on its young generation, who are keen to make history on the world stage. Speaking to Taggat, Pape Gueye reaffirmed the responsibility that comes with wearing the national shirt a mission that is almost sacred for Senegal’s internationals.

“The goal is to win the World Cup. The mindset, as the president so aptly put it, is to honour the country, to ensure everything goes smoothly, and to give it our all. I often say it’s as if we’re on a mission for our homeland.”
