JARAAF POCKETS MORE THAN 250 MILLION CFA FRANCS FOR ITS PARTICIPATION

Jaraaf de la Médina, although recently eliminated from the CAF Confederation Cup by USM Alger (2-0) on the last day of the group stage, leaves with a significant financial reward. The Senegalese club pockets 400,000 dollars, or more than 250 million CFA francs, for its participation in this continental competition and for having reached the group stage.

This substantial sum constitutes a valuable consolation for the club of president Cheikh Ahmed Tidiane Seck, who could have hoped for even more, i.e. 350 million CFA francs, in the event of qualification for the quarter-finals.

Despite the elimination, this financial gain allows Jaraaf to plan for the next season with reinforced resources, thus offering optimal conditions to prepare for future challenges. This envelope of 250 million CFA francs will undoubtedly be used to improve infrastructure, strengthen the workforce, and plan a competitive strategy for the seasons to come, thus consolidating the club’s position on the national and continental football scene.
