Gueye made this stunning claim after the Teranga Lions were eliminated from the 2026 World Cup by Belgium.

The 27-year-old took to social media to express his anger immediately after the match.

He wrote: “l’Il be back to give you a few words regarding elimination… but I announce today that as long as it’s this technical staff I’ll take a break from the selection.”

Senegal were on the verge of progressing into the last 16 after taking a two-goal lead.

But Belgium scored two late goals to force the match into extra time, where a Youri Tielemans penalty sent the African side out.
