Amara Diouf won her case against Génération Foot.
It’s a bolt from the blue in the world of Senegalese Football. Amara Diouf won her standoff against Génération Foot with whom the African U17 champion was in conflict. The national dispute resolution chamber of the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF) ruled on October 8 in favor of the young player, terminating his contract with the club at the end of the current season, and not until 2028 as initially foreseen.

Amara Diouf’s parents, supported by their representatives, had contested the duration of the contract, relying on FIFA regulations, which limit minors’ contracts to three years. The litigation chamber confirmed that the lease signed in 2022 with Génération Foot will expire at the end of the 2024-2025 season, thus allowing Diouf to freely sign with another club of his choice.
Towards dangerous jurisprudence for GF
Negotiations for a new contract could be considered to allow Génération Foot to benefit from financial compensation, but this thesis seems to have taken a turn for the worse over the months. Diouf’s camp seems to want to close this chapter and turn to a new destination, while waiting for the winger to come of age and be able to benefit from a transfer to Europe.
There is no doubt that this series is only just beginning, Génération Foot is preparing, according to information from Sport News Africato appeal this decision with regard to the financial repercussions that this decision will have, but also with regard to the contracts already signed with other minor residents of the Academy.
