One super cash prize and two large plots of land each.

This is the "concrete" recognition that the government of Senegal has decided to attribute to the heroes of the national football team who for the first time in its history succeeded in triumphing in the African Cup of Nations, beating Egypt in the final after penalties.

In detail, Kalidou Koulibaly, Sadio Manè and teammates (including Cagliari striker Keita Baldè) will receive around 75,000 euros and two plots of land, one of 200 square meters in the capital Dakar and one of 500 square meters in the new city of Diamniadio. .

The players and the staff of the national team were also received by the president Macky Sall, who asked them to do everything possible to qualify for Qatar 2022: "I am not asking to win the next World Cup but at least a place in the semifinals", said Sall.

To reach the qualification, Senegal will have to win the play-off. The opponent, once again, will be the Egypt of Momo Salah.
