Senegalese Create Go-Fund-Me To Raise $100,000 Fine For Pape Thiaw Imposed By CAF

The Senegalese coach is moved by his compatriots’ initiative to pay the $100,000 fine imposed on him by the CAF Disciplinary Board.

However, although Pape Thiaw greatly appreciates this show of solidarity, he is calling on the Senegalese people who launched this initiative to donate the funds raised to those in need.

He said, “People of Senegal, my family, Your solidarity since the announcement of the sanctions touches my heart. Thank you for the love you show me every day.

“However, I humbly ask you not to organise fundraisers in my name. While I understand and appreciate this outpouring of generosity, I invite you to redirect these funds to more urgent causes, for the benefit of those who truly need them,” Pape Thiaw said on his Instagram account.

The fundraiser, called ‘Cagnotte Pape Thiaw’, was launched on January 29, 2026, on the Kopar Express platform. It has already reached $4,300.
